About the author

... Show More
Author of Emotional Intelligence and psychologist Daniel Goleman has transformed the way the world educates children, relates to family and friends, and conducts business. The Wall Street Journal ranked him one of the 10 most influential business thinkers.

Goleman's Emotional Intelligence was on The New York Times best sellers list for a year-and-a-half. Named one of the 25 "Most Influential Business Management Books" by TIME, it has been translated into 40 languages. The Harvard Business Review called emotional intelligence (EI) “a revolutionary, paradigm-shattering idea.”

Goleman's new book, Focus: The Hidden Driver of Excellence, argues that attention — a fundamental mental ability for success — has come under siege. Leadership that gets results demands a triple focus: on our inner world so we can manage ourselves; on others, for our relationships; and on the outer forces that shape our organizations and society itself.

His more recent books include The Brain and Emotional Intelligence, and Leadership: The Power of Emotional Intelligence - Selected Writings.

Una guía corta pero valiosa con ensayos y consejos para desarrollar tu liderazgo y llevar a tu equipo al éxito empresarial. No le doy 5 estrellas porque mucho de los textos son publicaciones de Linkedin.

Audiobook. Quick to the point. Solid applicable content and summary of subject which was fine for someone not interested in getting a PhD.

I wish there were less antidotal stories and more pulled from actual/ documented events.

Excelente!

Un buen compendio de artículos de Inteligencia Emocional, con un trasfondo apoyado en la Neurociencia y con consejos útiles para poner en práctica en el día a día.

Good one. I'm a fan of Daniel Goleman as an emotional intelligence expert. Then you add in Jack and Suzy Welch. It's the perfect combination of practical thoughts + academic ones.

Una recopilación de diferentes escritos de Goleman sobre el mismo tema: el liderazgo y la inteligencia emocional.
Fue una lectura entretenida en algunas partes, y lenta en otra, pero bastante útil en su totalidad. Aprendí algunas cosas nuevas, tras años de no leer ninguna obra del autor.
