Over a decade ago Daniel Goleman told us that to be successful in our personal and professional lives we need emotional intelligence (EQ). In this book, Martyn Newman shows us how to get it and use it to achieve extraordinary results.
Based on ground-breaking psychological research with some of the world's most successful young business leaders, Newman identifies the seven dynamic emotions that set these exceptional men and women apart. He then uncovers the psychological building blocks that drive outstanding performance and provides the clearest blueprint yet for systematically building your EQ and leadership skills.
