Business executives' lives have become a never-ending race against time, technology, and targets. This race creates tension, which leads to dissatisfaction and frustration and eventually manifests itself as psychological and physiological stress with mental and emotional drain. This modern lifestyle intensifies the stress leading to "excessive tension" and consequent deterioration in "executive efficiency".
To assess emotional intelligent quotient (EQ) in managers undergoing yoga-based Self Management of Excessive Tension (SMET) program.
72 managers participated in this study which is of "single group pre-post design." The EQ test developed by Prof N. K. Chadha from University of Delhi was administered as pre and post the 5 days of SMET program.
Means, standard deviations, Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, and Wilcoxon signed rank test were used to analyze the data.
The data analysis showed 72.02% significant increase (P<0.001) in EQ.
The results suggest that participation in a SMET program was associated with improvement in EQ and may have implications for "executive efficiency."
企业高管的生活已变成一场与时间、技术和目标的永无休止的赛跑。这场赛跑产生了紧张情绪，进而导致不满和沮丧，最终表现为心理和生理压力以及精神和情感耗竭。这种现代生活方式加剧了压力，导致“过度紧张”，进而使“高管效率”下降。
评估参加基于瑜伽的过度紧张自我管理（SMET）项目的管理者的情商（EQ）。
72名管理者参与了这项“单组前后设计”的研究。在SMET项目的5天前后，采用了由德里大学的N.K.查达教授开发的情商测试。
使用均值、标准差、柯尔莫哥洛夫-斯米尔诺夫检验和威尔科克森符号秩检验来分析数据。
数据分析显示情商显著提高了72.02%（P<0.001）。
结果表明，参与SMET项目与情商的提高有关，可能对“高管效率”有影响。
