The bestselling author of Emotional Intelligence transforms leadership from art to sccience. Daniel Goleman forever changed our concept of "being smart," proving that emotional intelligence (EI) matters more than IQ or technical skill in educational success. Now, Goleman temas with Richard Boyatzis and Annie McKee, experts on the cutting edge of EI research, to explore the consequences of emotional intelligence for leaders and organizations. Unveiling scientific evidence that links organizational success or failure to "primal leadership," the authors argue that a leader's emotions are contagious, and must resonate energy and enthusiasm if an organization is to thrive. This breakthrough concept changes the primal task of leaders from driving earnings or strategy to driving emotions -- and consequently organizational performance -- in the right direction.
