Course Description:
Emotional intelligence is a set of skills that are thought to contribute to the appraisal of emotions
in oneself and others. It can also help contribute to the effective regulation of emotions as well
as feelings (Salovey & Mayer, 1990). In terms of emotional intelligence, self-awareness and
self-management have to do with our ability to relate to ourselves. Social awareness and
relationship management have to do with our ability to relate to others. Similarly, the ability to
solve questions on Analytical Reasoning and Data Sufficiency is a critical area tested in almost
all competitive examinations and admission tests. Upon completion, students should be able (1)
to deal with their own emotions as well as the emotions of others and relate better with both.
Using better knowledge of EI, students will also be able to set more meaningful goals for
themselves, choose suitable time management techniques that work best for them and work in
teams more effectively. (2) to apply different concepts, ideas and methods to solve questions in
reasoning and data sufficiency
Course Objectives:
1. Use EI to relate more effectively to themselves, their colleagues and to others. Apply
self-awareness and self-assessment (SWOT) to better understand and manage their own
emotions. Apply social awareness to empathize with others and build stronger
relationships with others.
2. Set meaningful goals based on their strengths and weaknesses and apply time
management techniques, such as Q4 organizing to put first things first.
3. Manage conflicts and work in teams in an emotionally intelligent manner.
4. Solve questions on non-verbal and analytical reasoning, data sufficiency and puzzles

Design Thinking and Frugal Innovation concepts are increasingly getting attention and practiced in
many emerging markets and developing countries. Design Thinking is involved in promoting a
mechanism of working with user-centred innovation to solve problems where previous knowledge is
unavailable. Design Thinking has emerged as a critical acumen for management and innovation, as it
is presumed to develop creativity among individuals. Frugal innovation, on the other hand, stands on
the competence and ingenuity of innovators/designers to develop solutions through a non-linear
process. Frugal innovation provides insights into how business and entrepreneurs develop products
that meets the needs of the people at the Bottom of the Pyramid (BoP) by generating social,
economic and environment value for society and making profits.
