Emotional Intelligence Magazine’s tone:
Our tone can vary depending on the topic of the article. However, we aim to provide rich and in-depth content that is well articulated with a ‘less is more’ attitude—reducing the fluff and filler words that offer little to no value to the reader. We want to provide deeper insight than is normally discussed—beyond what EI is, why it’s important, and how to develop it.
For contributing articles, we prefer one or more of the following tones:
-
Sincere
-
Optimistic
-
Informal/Informative blend
-
Hopeful

We have a diverse audience since we cover a variety of topics about emotional intelligence like parenting, personal and professional development, education, relationships, and more.
Average range: 35-55 years old
Educations: On average, holds a four-year degree
