Daniel Goleman

Me saame kontrollida oma tugevaid emotsioone ja impulsse, et need ei häiriks meie efektiivsust ka stressirohkes või ebasoodsas olukorras. Keskendumine mis tahes asjale, mis on antud hetkel meie jaoks oluline, võimaldab meil anda endast parima kõiges selles, mida me teeme.Me ei saa kogu aeg ja igal alal tippvormis olla, aga me võime seada realistlikuma eesmärgi. Üks lihtsalt hea päev ilma pideva enesekriitikata aitab muuhulgas vältida ka läbipõlemist.Raamatu esimeses osas süveneme sellesse, mis toimub siis, kui oleme parimas vormis, ja kuidas emotsionaalne intelligentsus võib aidata meil sinnamaale jõuda.Teises osas lahkame emotsionaalse intelligentsuse peamisi komponente meie eneseteadvuses, selles, kuidas me ennast juhime, teiste inimestega häälestume ja kuidas see kõik kokku põimub.Kolmandas osas uurime elu üht eriti olulist aspekti - parimas vormis töötamist, kuidas emotsionaalne intelligentsus aitab meil üksi, juhi või tiimiliikmena optimaalselt tegutseda ja kirjeldame mooduseid, kuidas neid oskusi arendada. Lisaks vaatleme, mida tähendab emotsionaalselt intelligentne organisatsioon.Neljandas osas keskendume emotsionaalse intelligentsuse tulevikule.

Now, he reveals practical methods for using these inner resources to more readily enter an optimal state of high performance and satisfaction while avoiding burnout. There are moments when we achieve peak performance: An athlete plays a perfect game; a business has a quarter with once-in-a-lifetime profits. But these moments are often elusive, and for every amazing day, we may have a hundred ordinary and even unsatisfying days. Fulfillment doesn't come from isolated peak experiences, but rather from many consistent good days. So how do we sustain performance, while avoiding burnout and maintaining balance? In Optimal, Daniel Goleman and Cary Cherniss reveal how emotional intelligence can help us have a great day, any day. They explain how to set a realistic, attainable goal of feeling satisfied that you've had a productive day -- to consistently work at your 'optimal' level. Based on research of how hundreds of people build the inner architecture of having a good day, they sketch what an optimal state feels like, and show how emotional intelligence holds the key to our best performance. Optimal is the culmination of decades of scientific discoveries bearing on emotional intelligence. Enhanced emotional intelligence pays off in improved engagement, productivity, and more satisfying days. In this book, you'll find the keys to competence in emotional intelligence, and practical methods for applying this skill set more readily. It will equip you to become a highly effective leader and enable you to build an organizational culture that empowers workers to sustain high performance.

Influir en los que nos rodean y apoyar nuestro propio bienestar requiere que seamos conscientes de nosotros mismos, que sepamos cu ndo y c mo regular nuestras reacciones emocionales y que comprendamos las respuestas emocionales de los que nos rodean.

Managing the human side of work Research by Daniel Goleman, a psychologist and coauthor of Primal Leadershipp, has shown that emotional intelligence is a more powerful determinant of good leadership than technical competence, IQ, or vision. Influencing those around us and supporting our own well-being requires us to be self-aware, know when and how to regulate our emotional reactions, and understand the emotional responses of those around us. No wonder emotional intelligence has become one of the crucial criteria in hiring and promotion. But luckily it's not just an innate trait: Emotional intelligence is composed of skills that all of us can learn and improve on.

What emotional components primarily shape our destiny? Is it possible (and how exactly, if so) to correct the emotional patterns embedded in a person when they inhibit his movement to the better? And in general, is it really possible to combine two words - "emotional" and "intelligence" - and not get a contradiction? Answers to these questions are provided by David Goleman's book, which is based on a scientific basis and at the same time easily written for a wide audience - one of the undisputed psychological bestsellers of recent decades
