I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book. Daniel Goleman is widely accredited with putting Emotional Intelligence on the map. His original book on the subject became an international best seller and created a movement that made most people sit up and consider this concept in the way the live, socialize and work.
The definition of Emotional Intelligence is defined by Goleman as: “The capacity for recognizing our own feelings and those of others, and for managing emotions effectively in others and ourselves”. In this book he describes how best to leverage Emotional Intelligence to become a better leader.
