Written by Daniel Goleman - Audio book narrated by Aaron Meza - Unabridged Nonfiction - 10 COMPACT DISCS - 12 hours Publisher, Audio Renaissance (October 2005) Success and Leadership in Today's Workplace Demand E.Q. More Than I.Q. The author of the astonishing international bestseller Emotional Intelligence now shows how success and leadership in today's workplace demands more EQ ("Emotional Quotient") than IQ -- and writes the definitive book to demonstrate how it can work for everyone. From Library Journal: Having explained in Emotional Intelligence that EQ matters as much as IQ in the workplace, Goleman now explains how EQ can be learned. From Philadelphia Inquirer: A smart, adventurous book...Goleman strikes a blow for both science and common sense. From San Francisco Chronicle: Goleman's highly readable and wide-ranging exploration of the best research available by modern psychologists and educators provides important insights into the true meaning of intelligence. From New York Times Book Review: Mr. Goleman is a teacher at ease with his subject,...making lively connections between the wealth of new understandings and the riches of older wisdom about our affective lives. In his phenomenal bestseller, Emotional Intelligence, Daniel Goleman mapped the territory where IQ meets EQ, where we apply what we know to how we live. Spending over a year on the New York Times bestseller list, Emotional Intelligence provided the evidence for what many successful people already knew: being smart isn't just a matter of mastering facts; it's a matter of mastering your own emotions and understanding the emotions of the people around you. Now, in Working With Emotional Intelligence, Goleman shows why emotional intelligence has become the new yardstick for success for CEOs and junior hires alike. Drawing on both unparalleled access to business leaders and in-depth research, he documents that star performance in every field depends more on emotional intelligence than IQ or technical skills. And the impact of emotional intelligence is even greater at the top of the leadership pyramid. Goleman vividly shows how self-awareness, motivation, influence, conflict management, and team-building play out in some of the top corporations in the world today, and points out the damage done when they are lacking. He also creates a strategy for the "emotionally intelligent organization" that will shape training and development programs for years to come. With examples from real-life businesses, including successes and failures, this program is a blueprint for all who want to thrive with integrity and satisfaction in the new global economy.
