Emotional Intelligence in Business. How to Become Successful in Life and Career

Daniel Goleman

Daniel Goleman's best-selling book "Emotional Intelligence" revolutionized psychology. In his second book on emotional intelligence, the author analyzes the reasons and secrets of business success for both individuals and organizations, identifying the skills that distinguish leaders in any industry.

Specific examples show how emotions, self-control, communication skills, and the ability to work in a team—that is, emotional intelligence—affect success in life and business. According to the author, it is more important than IQ, academic degrees, and life experience. And the higher a person's position, the more important these skills are.

Goleman emphasizes that we all have the potential to develop emotional intelligence at any stage of our career, and also gives us recommendations for increasing our own effectiveness.
