Emotional Intelligence

Emotional Intelligence - Daniel Goleman

Daniel Goleman questions the idea that IQ alone determines how far we go in life. He argues that emotions shape thinking, decisions and everyday success just as strongly, and sometimes more.

Beyond a narrow definition of intelligence

The book expands the usual understanding of intelligence by placing emotional life at the center. Goleman shows how the way we handle feelings affects relationships, work and the choices we make.

Skills that matter in daily life

Self-awareness, impulse control, persistence, motivation, empathy and social deftness appear here as practical human abilities, not abstract traits. These are the qualities linked to people who do well with others and function effectively in demanding environments.

What the brain reveals about emotion and reason

Drawing on insights into the brain architecture behind emotion and rationality, Goleman explains how these two sides interact. He also points to the idea that emotional intelligence is not fixed and can be developed over time.
