*ABOUT THE YALE CENTER FOR EMOTIOANL INTELLIGENCE*

Emotions drive learning, decision making, creativity, relationships, and
health.  The Yale Center for Emotional Intelligence uses the power of
emotions to create a healthier, and more innovative, productive, and
compassionate society.  We conduct research and design educational
approaches that support people of all ages in developing emotional
intelligence and the skills to thrive and contribute to society.  RULER,
the Center’s signature program, draws on leading pedagogical practices as
well as advances in psychology and neuroscience, and it has been honed
through years of collaboration, classroom observation, interviews, and the
most demanding evaluations.  Creating awareness—both of self and
others—about emotions and developing the skills of emotional intelligence
can improve children’s prospects in life and contribute, in turn, to
healthier, more compassionate families, workplaces, and communities.  RULER
does this by teaching adults and children the skills of emotional
intelligence.  Since 2005, more than 600 schools have implemented RULER,
affecting the lives of over 500,000 students.  Accordingly, we integrate
emotional intelligence skill building, the basis of RULER, into their
everyday practices and into classroom curricula across grade levels.

Yale University is an affirmative action/equal opportunity employer. Women,
members of minority groups, persons with disabilities, and protected
veterans are encouraged to apply.
