Emotional Intelligence, by Daniel Goleman

Overview: With so much focus on IQ, Goleman presents research and frameworks that reinforce that our success in work and life is just as much tied to our Emotional Intelligence as it is to our intellectual capacity.

Key Takeaway: Goleman’s framework presents 4 foundational pillars of Emotional Intelligence:

  1. Self Awareness - the ability to recognize your own emotions and emotional state

  2. Self Management - the ability to manage your emotions effectively

  3. Social Awareness - the ability to recognize the emotional states of others

  4. Relationship Management - the ability to adapt your actions and behaviors to better collaborate and communicate with others


Bonus Tip: “Empathy is a fundamental people skill. Without it, our social interactions will be shallow, confusing, or fraught with misunderstandings.” The ability to recognize other’s emotional landscape, to see from their perspective without judgement, advising, or fixing, allows us to influence through connection instead of coercion.
