Synopsis

If you think analytical skills, company loyalty, or even competence is the key to success in the workplace, it's time to think again. Most experts now agree that those who climb the corporate ladder most quickly are those who possess a high degree of emotional intelligence. Simply put, emotional intelligence (EI) is the ability to make your emotions work for you by using them in ways that produce the results you want. And the good news is that, unlike IQ and other traditional measures of intelligence, El tan be developed and dramatically increased.

Based on an extensive body of research and the author's years of experience in the field, Emotional Intelligence at Work is a hands-on guide people tan use to amplify their own emotional intelligence. In plain, easy-to-follow language, Dr. Weisinger explains exactly what El is all about. He shows how to master the tore competencies of emotional intelligence, abilities that include self-motivation, high self-awareness, mood management, and emotional mentoring. Moreover, he includes scores of real-world examples and dozens of practical exercices that accelerate the process, as well as step-by-step approaches to mastering a variety of El techniques.

Aside from showing individuals how they can get ahead by applying emotional intelligence in the workplace, Dr. Weisinger also explains how businesses tan benefit through the application of EI on a company-wide basic. Because the development of EI means having employees who are more creative, more fulfilled, and more enthusiastic, its promotion throughout an organization can improve productivity, speed adaptation to change, improve retention of key employees, and generally bolster that organization's competitive stance.

A number of books have been written about the theories surrounding emotional intelligence. But this is the first to translate those theories into a pragmatic plan of action anyone tan follow. Use it to achieve the kind of success that, until now, seemed always reserved for others.
