Working with Emotional Intelligence

Daniel Goleman's book shows, through years of research, that intelligence is much less important than other competencies in outstanding leaders. Goleman outlines numerous facets of what he calls Emotional Intelligence that make up two-thirds of the successful leader's profile.
