La inteligencia emocional constituye un verdadero fenómeno editorial que no solamente revoluciono el concepto de inteligencia, sino que agregó una nueva expresión a nuestro vocabulario cotidiano y cambió el modo en que percibimos la excelencia personal.
¿Por qué no siempre el alumno más inteligente termina siendo el adulto que mayor éxito tiene en el trabajo? ¿Por qué algunos son más capaces que otros de enfrentar contratiempos, superar obstáculos y ver las dificultades bajo una óptica distinta?.
Un nuevo concepto viene a darnos la respuesta a estos interrogantes. Es la inteligencia emocional la que nos permite tomar conciencia de nuestras emociones, comprender los sentimientos de los demás, tolerar las presiones y frustraciones que soportamos en el trabajo, incrementar nuestra capacidad de empatía y nuestras habilidades sociales y aumentar nuestras posibilidades de desarrollo social
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
#1 BESTSELLER • The groundbreaking book that redefines what it means to be smart, with a new introduction by the author.
“A thoughtfully written, persuasive account explaining emotional intelligence and why it can be crucial.” —USA Today
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 emotional—and how they together shape our destiny. But why is emotional intelligence important?
Drawing on groundbreaking brain and behavioral research, Goleman shows the factors at work when people of high IQ flounder and those of modest IQ do surprisingly well. These factors, which include self-awareness, self-discipline, and empathy, add up to a different way of being smart—and they aren’t fixed at birth. Although shaped by childhood experiences, emotional intelligence can be nurtured and strengthened throughout our adulthood—with immediate benefits to our health, our relationships, and our work.
This edition of Emotional Intelligence could not come at a better time—we spend so much of our time online, more and more jobs are becoming automated and digitized, and our children are picking up new technology faster than we ever imagined.
