Synopsis

This program features a new introduction read by Daniel Goleman and a bonus dialogue between the author and Jon Kabat-Zinn.

It is the tenth anniversary since the first publication of Daniel Goleman's groundbreaking bestseller, Emotional Intelligence which maps 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.

What should I say about this book? Absolutely fabulous delivers what it said. The book develops a conscience in the readers to achieve something greater. As it suggests it is a really groundbreaking book that redefines what it means to be smart.......more

Goodreads review by Nga on September 12, 2017

First printed nearly 20 years ago, this book's content can deliver around 50% relevance now I guess, given the mushroom-ing of "emotional intelligence" and other buzzwords that come with it for the last two decades. We heard too much of them nowadays that the first half can be a freaking long and......more

Goodreads review by Justin on August 26, 2008

Working with Emotional Intelligence is a must read for anyone who wants to move up the corporate ladder. Today's business atmosphere is changing rapidly, and anyone without emotional intelligence will likely find moving upward in their company very difficult.......more

Goodreads review by Ron on February 12, 2013

No real rocket science here... Getting ahead may actually count more on your emotional IQ (see items below) than it does on your intellectual IQ. I'd only suggest reading one Goleman book. I suspect they all rehash the same thoughts. Part 2 – Personal Competence (12 specific job capabilities) Chapter......more
