Bøger af Daniel Goleman

When asked to define the ideal leader, many would emphasize traits such as intelligence, toughness, determination, and vision-the qualities traditionally associated with leadership. Often left off the list are softer, more personal qualities-but they are also essential. Although a certain degree of analytical and technical skill is a minimum requirement for success, studies indicate that emotional intelligence may be the key attribute that distinguishes outstanding performers from those who are merely adequate. Psychologist and author Daniel Goleman first brought the term "e;emotional intelligence"e; to a wide audience with his 1995 book of the same name, and Goleman first applied the concept to business with a 1998 classic Harvard Business Review article. In his research at nearly 200 large, global companies, Goleman found that truly effective leaders are distinguished by a high degree of emotional intelligence. Without it, a person can have first-class training, an incisive mind, and an endless supply of good ideas, but he or she still won't be a great leader. The chief components of emotional intelligence-self-awareness, self-regulation, motivation, empathy, and social skill-can sound unbusinesslike, but Goleman found direct ties between emotional intelligence and measurable business results.The Harvard Business Review Classics series offers you the opportunity to make seminal Harvard Business Review articles a part of your permanent management library.

Daniel Goleman's international bestseller Emotional Intelligence changed our concept of "being smart," proving that emotional intelligence-how we handle ourselves and our relationships-matters more than IQ or technical skill in educational success. His next bestseller, Working with Emotional Intelligence, proved that career success also depends primarily on emotional intelligence.Now, Goleman teams with Richard Boyatzis and Annie McKee, experts on emotional intelligence research, to explore the consequences of emotional intelligence for leaders and organizations. The authors argue that a leader's emotions are contagious, and must resonate energy and enthusiasm if an organization is to thrive.Through analyses and examples, the authors show that resonant leaders excel not just through industry savvy but by leveraging emotional intelligence competencies like empathy and self-awareness. They also adopt varying leadership styles-from visionary to coaching to commanding-as the situation demands.Identifying the ways in which resonant leadership can be learned, the authors show how leaders can groom personal and organizational emotional intelligence to ignite outstanding performance. This audiobook transforms the art of leadership into the science of results.

La inteligencia emocional constituye un verdadero fenómeno editorial que no solamente revoluciono el concepto de inteligencia, sino que agregó una nueva expresión a nuestro vocabulario cotidiano y cambió el modo en que percibimos la excelencia personal. Por qué no siempre el alumno más inteligente termina siendo el adulto que mayor éxito tiene en el trabajo? Por que algunos son más capaces que otros de enfrentar contratiempos, superar obstáculos y ver las dificultades bajo una optica distinta?.Un nuevo concepto viene a darnos la respuesta a estos interrogantes. Es la inteligencia emocional la que nos permite tomar conciencia de nuestras emociones, comprender los sentimientos de los demas, tolerar las presiones y frustraciones que soportamos en el trabajo, incrementar nuestra capacidad de empatía y nuestras habilidades sociales y aumentar nuestras posibilidades de desarrollo socialENGLISH DESCRIPTIONEveryone knows that high IQ is no guarantee of success, happiness, or virtue, but until Emotional Intelligence, we could only guess why. Daniel Goleman's brilliant report from the frontiers of psychology and neuroscience offers startling new insight into our "two minds"-the rational and the emotional-and how they together shape our destiny.Through vivid examples, Goleman delineates the five crucial skills of emotional intelligence, and shows how they determine our success in relationships, work, and even our physical well-being. What emerges is an entirely new way to talk about being smart. The best news is that "emotional literacy" is not fixed early in life. Every parent, every teacher, every business leader, and everyone interested in a more civil society, has a stake in this compelling vision of human possibility.

An important manifesto on how we can change our world for the better from the unique mind of the Dalai Lama, penned by the internationally bestselling author of Emotional Intelligence'It is not enough merely to espouse a noble vision, the Dalai Lama tells us - we need to move toward it. The Dalai Lama's vision beckons us all. Every one of us can be a force for good' The Dalai Lama has for decades travelled the world, meeting people from all backgrounds and sharing with them his wisdom and compassion. In his encounters with everyone, from heads to state to inhabitants of shanty towns, he has come across similar problems: values that help the wealthy to advance beyond the poor, an environmental disregard that could lead to global catastrophe and governments in paralysis, bereft of any positive, progressive policies. The Dalai Lama offers here his unique vision for a global economic system, one that applies principals of fairness and which values fulfilment, focusing on what is truly urgent and why. It is a manifesto that has the potential to reshape humanity as we know it and bring hope to millions.

In this short and timely book, the authors a powerhouse trio in the field of leadership look at what conspires against a culture of candor in organizations to create disastrous results, and suggests ways that leaders can achieve healthy and honest openness.

Although we all want to help the environment, our knowledge of what are 'green' choices is often so limited that we can do more harm than good. This book shows you: Why a T-shirt that claims it is '100% organic cotton' may be in fact no such thing; and, Why it's good to buy tulips from Kenya and wine from France.

Do you want to be more successful at work? Do you want to improve your chances of promotion? Do you want to get on better with your colleagues? This work demonstrates that emotional intelligence at work matters twice as much as cognitive abilities such as IQ or technical expertise.

The vital role of emotional intelligence in the new style of management - this is the book no leader in any walk of life can afford to miss. It transforms the art of leadership into the science of results.

Dalai Lama er bekymret over vores planets udvikling, og han bekymrer sig for hvert enkelt menneskes velbefindende. Hans vision er at styrke menneskets medfølende side. Vi skal udøve selvkontrol og emotionel hygiejne, som han kalder det – vi skal rydde op i sindet for at give plads til medfølelse. Dalai Lama vil slå ned på mange landes omfattende korruption med medfølende magt; han vil skabe lighed mellem mennesker med en medfølende økonomi, og han vil undervise i medfølelse for at give fremtidige generationer værktøj til at skabe sunde og holdbare samfund. Det er hans vision. Daniel Goleman har over årene opbygget et tæt venskab med Dalai Lama. Denne bog er blevet til gennem en række møder og samtaler og udgives i forbindelse Dalai Lamas 80-årsfødselsdag.

Han beskriver, at hjernens etiske radar samt dens kreative netværk og kredsløb styrer vores handlekraft, vedholdenhed og motivation. Vi kan lære at forstærke hjernetilstanden bag vores præstationer og lærer at optimere den. Herudover beskriver Goleman den sociale hjerne og hvordan den fungerer online.  Dette er en lille bog om vores følelsesmæssigt intelligente hjerne.

Opmærksomhed er en undervurderet mental egenskab. Vi bruger den hele tiden, og vi har vænnet os til, at vi helt automatisk vender voresopmærksomhed mod det, vi er interesserede i.Men opmærksomhed er ikke bare tilfældig. Det er et meget stærkt og vigtigt grundlag for vores koncentration og vores læring. Opmærksomhedener afgørende for, at vi kan mærke vores egne følelser, at vi kan håndtere vores følelsesmæssige reaktioner, at vi kan fornemme andres følelser og aflæse deres intentioner og utallige andre grundlæggende funktioner. Er vi ikke i stand til at holde fokus, bliver vi overfladiske og mister det dybe engagement i verden omkring os.Goleman kalder fokus for selvreflekterende opmærksomhed – det at vi er i stand til at være bevidste om vores mentale tilstand. Vi kan optræne denne egenskab, og vi bør gøre det, for den er afgørende for vores succes i alle livets gøremål. Denne bog giver grundviden og masser af inspiration til at finde og træne opmærksomheden, så vi igen bliver i stand til at fokusere på det, der er vigtigt for os.
