Daniel Goleman's new book is excellent. Here are some of the key points.

• If you want to master peak performance, you have to master Emotional Intelligence.

  
  

• You don't have to be emotionally intelligent, but if you want a competitive advantage, it behooves you to invest in developing your capacity. Those people or teams who invest in Emotional Intelligence will outperform those that do not.

  
  

• Two core components of peak performance are empathy and trust.

  
  

• The benefits of investing in emotional intelligence are almost too numerous to count.

  • Better decision making

  • More engagement

He has such a deep and compelling understanding of the topic of Emotional Intelligence and it's impact on peak performance. Ignore the link at your own peril in my opinion.
