Episode 103 - Emotional Intelligence (Part 1): The New Yardstick for Success

What's more important for leadership success: raw intelligence (IQ) or emotional intelligence (EQ)? We begin our multi-part series on Daniel Goleman's groundbreaking work, Emotional Intelligence. In this first episode, our hosts explore the five crucial components of EQ: self-awareness, self-regulation, motivation, empathy, and social skill. We unpack the neuroscience behind emotion and reason, and analyze Goleman's powerful argument that our ability to manage our own feelings and understand others is the single greatest predictor of life and career success.
