Working With Emotional Intelligence

DO YOU WANT TO BE MORE SUCCESSFUL AT WORK? DO YOU WANT TO IMPROVE YOUR CHANCES OF PROMOTION? DO YOU WANT TO GET ON BETTER WITH YOUR COLLEAGUES? In this sequel to the international bestseller, Emotional Intelligence, Daniel Goleman draws on unparalleled access to business leaders around the world and the thorough research that is his trademark. He demonstrates that emotional intelligence at work matters twice as much as cognitive abilities such as IQ or technical expertise.

Emotional intelligence includes self-awareness and impulse control, persistence, zeal and motivation, empathy and social deftness. These are the qualities that mark people who excel: whose relationships flourish, who are stars in the workplace.

With new insights into the brain architecture underlying emotion and rationality, Goleman shows precisely how emotional intelligence can be nurtured and strengthened in all of us. And because emotional lessons a child learns sculpt the brain's circuitry, Goleman provides detailed guidance as to how parents and schools can benefit from this.
