"Great leaders move us. They ignite our passion and inspire the best in us. Great leadership works through the emotions"(Daniel Goleman, EI: Why it can Matter more than IQ).
"Success in business today is 15% technology and 85% Emotional Intelligence" (Tom Peters, In Search of Excellence)
"A leader's intelligence has to have a strong emotional component. He has to have high levels of self-awareness, maturity and self-control. She must be able to withstand the heat, handle setbacks and, when those lucky moments arise, enjoy success with equal parts of joy and humility. No doubt emotional intelligence is more rare than book smarts, but my experience says it is actually more important in the making of a leader. You just can't ignore it."(Jack Welch)
What is Emotional Intelligence?
Emotional Intelligence is:
- "Emotional intelligence involves the ability to perceive accurately, appraise, and
express emotion; the ability to access and/or generate feelings when they facilitate
thought; the ability to understand emotion and emotional knowledge; and the ability
to regulate emotions to promote emotional and intellectual growth." Emotional
Development and Emotional Intelligence, 1997 - "is the capacity for recognizing our own feelings and those of others, for motivating
ourselves, for managing emotions well in ourselves and in our relationships" Daniel
Goleman - "The ability to perceive emotions, to access and generate emotions so as to assist
thought, to understand emotions and emotional meanings, and to reflectively
regulate emotions in ways that promote emotional and intellectual growth" Peter
Salovey and Jack Mayer - "An array of non-cognitive (emotional and social) capabilities, competencies and
skills that influence one's ability to succeed in coping with environmental demands
and pressures" Dr. Reuven Bar-On
