Daniel Goleman, página 2 de 7

Everyone knows that high IQ is no guarantee of success, happiness, or virtue, but until Emotional Intelligence, we could only guess why. Daniel Goleman's brilliant report from the frontiers of psychology and neuroscience offers startling new insight into our "two minds"the rational and the emotionaland how they together shape our destiny. Through vivid examples, Goleman delineates the five crucial skills of emotional intelligence, and shows how they determine our success in relationships, work, and even our physical well-being. What emerges is an entirely new way to talk about being smart. The best news is that "emotional literacy" is not fixed early in life. Every parent, every teacher, every business leader, and everyone interested in a more civil society, has a stake in this compelling vision of human possibility.

Is IQ destiny? Not nearly as much as we think. Daniel Golemans fascinating and persuasive book argues that our view of human intelligence is far too narrow, and that our emotions play a much greater role in thought, decision making and individual success than is commonly acknowledged. Emotional intelligence includes self-awareness and impulse control, persistence zeal and self-motivation, empathy and social deftness. These are the qualities that mark people who excel: whose intimate relationships flourish, who are stars in the workplace. With new insights into the brain architecture underlying emotion and rationality, Goleman shows precisely how emotional intelligence can be nurtured and strengthened in all of us. And because the emotional lessons a child learns actually sculpt the brains circuitry, Goleman provides detailed guidance as to how parents and schools can benefit from this.

tyle of management - this is the book no leader in any walk of life can afford to miss. It transforms the art of leadership into the science of results.As business reinvents itself at broadband speed, what makes leaders effective has inevitably been transformed. Old assumptions and old modes no longer hold; a new style of leadership that works has emerged amidst the chaos of change. This new leader excels in the art of relationship, the singular expertise which the changing business climate renders indispensable. Excellence is being defined in interpersonal terms as companies have stripped out layers of managers, as corporations merge across national boundaries, and as customers and suppliers redefine the web of connection. Bestselling author Daniel Goleman argues that emotionally intelligent leaders are now ''must-haves'' for business today. But many readers have been left with, So now what do I do? The New Leaders answers that question by laying out the map for transforming leadership in individuals, in teams and organisations.

Un penetrante análisis de las diversas formas de autoengaño para protegernos de la ansiedad, el fracaso y el dolor. Un penetrante análisis de las diversas formas en que los seres humanos nos autoengañamos para protegernos de la ansiedad, el fracaso y el dolor. Goleman encuentra evidencias de ello en todos los niveles: desde la actividad mental individual a la dinamica de toda una sociedad. Asi entendido, el autoengaño ha de considerarse un mecanismo psicologico de defensa contra los dolorosos embates del mundo exterior. El cerebro humano es capaz de filtrar selectivamente la informacion que recibe, y de esa manera disminuye la conciencia de la memoria y las percepciones negativas. Este mecanismo crea un punto ciego que bloquea la atencion y disminuye el impacto de las decepciones. Pero aunque el autoengaño es en la mayoria de las ocasiones beneficioso para la estabilidad psiquica y emocional ya que su funcion es precisamente preservarla, a veces puede ser peligroso y perjudicial, tanto a nivel individual como social.
