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.

Pot actuar el pensament sobre el cos? La tradició budista diu que sí. Amb la participació de Sa Santedat el Dalai Lama, un grup de científics analitzen, juntament amb representants de la meditació budista, conceptes com la salut, les emocions, la medicina, la compassió, la naturalesa de la consciència, l'autocontrol, el fun-cionament del cervell, així com els diferents punts de contacte entre el cos, el pensament i l'esperit. Del debat en surten conceptes interessant, com aquells àmbits en què conflu-eixen els resultats de les investiga-cions més avançades i les intuïcions expresades ja fa segles pels grans messtres de la meditació budista.

A major book from the author of the bestselling Emotional Intelligence. Social Intelligence does for relationships what Emotional Intelligence did for emotions: brings readers a radically different way of thinking about themselves and their world.

Can the mind heal the body? This work is a record of the "Mind and Life" Conference, a meeting that took place in 1991 in Dharamsala, India, gathering Buddhist teachers and Western scholars to discuss a variety of spiritual, philosophical and psychological questions.

Daniel Goleman, el célebre autor de La inteligencia emocional, defiende, junto a los coaturoes de este libro, que el liderazgo está estrechamente vinculado a las emociones. Así, para ser un buen líder hay que cultivar el arte de la resonancia, saberse proyectar de forma positiva con la finalidad de aquellos a quienes se dirige, despertando en ellos distintas reacciones emotivas que van desde el humor, las pasiones, el entusiasmo, la emotividad, hasta el compromiso.

Imagine sitting with the Dalai Lama in his private meeting room together with a group of world-class scientists and philosophers, grappling with age-old questions of compelling contemporary urgency: Why do seemingly rational people commit acts of cruelty and violence? What are the root causes of hatred, greed, and delusion? Can we learn to control the emotions that drive our destructive impulses? Organized by the Mind and Life Institute, this rich encounter brings together cutting-edge research in brain science, education, and psychology with the most sophisticated Buddhist practices for transforming negative emotions. Goleman reports on breakthrough experiments that confirm Buddhist wisdom, bringing the ideas alive through the play of personalities and the Dalai Lamas surprising sense of humor. The hardcover sparked major newsfeature coverage, and the paperback will be updated with the latest research findings.

The author of the "New York Times" bestseller "Emotional Intelligence" delivers a groundbreaking work that reveals humans have a built-in bias toward empathy, cooperation, and altruism--provided they develop the social intelligence to nurture these capacities.

Emotional Intelligence was an international phenomenon, appearing on the New York Times bestseller list for over a year and selling more than 5 million copies worldwide. Now, once again, Daniel Goleman has written a groundbreaking synthesis of the latest findings in biology and brain science, revealing that we are wired to connect and the surprisingly deep impact of our relationships on every aspect our lives. Far more than we are consciously aware, our daily encounters with parents, spouses, bosses, and even strangers, shape our brains and affect cells throughout our bodies, down to the level of our genes for good or ill. In Social Intelligence, Daniel Goleman explores an emerging new science with startling implications for our interpersonal world. Its most fundamental discovery: we are designed for sociability, constantly engaged in a neural ballet that connects us brain-to-brain with those around us. Goleman explains the surprising accuracy of first impressions, the basis of charisma and emotional power, the complexity of sexual attraction, and how we detect lies. He describes the dark side of social intelligence, from narcissism to Machiavellianism and psychopathy. He also reveals our astonishing capacity for mindsight, as well as the tragedy of those, like autistic children, whose mindsight is impaired. Is there a way to raise our children to be happy? What is the basis of a nourishing marriage? How can business leaders and teachers inspire the best in those they lead and teach? How can groups divided by prejudice and hatred come to live together in peace? (...)
