Emotional Intelligence

A 25th anniversary edition of the international bestseller that has sold millions of copies and taught us that emotional intelligence is more important than IQ - a revolutionary, paradigm-shifting idea. With a new introduction by the author, this book examines whether IQ determines our destiny. In his groundbreaking bestseller, Daniel Goleman argues that our understanding of human intelligence is far too narrow. It is not our IQ, but our emotional intelligence that plays a crucial role in thinking, decision-making, and individual success. Self-awareness, impulse control, perseverance, motivation, empathy, and social skills are all traits that distinguish outstanding individuals, those whose relationships thrive, who can navigate difficult conversations, and who become stars in the workplace. With new insights into the brain architecture underlying emotion and rationality, Goleman illustrates exactly how emotional intelligence can be nurtured and strengthened in all of us.
