Synopsis

Where other books tell you about emotional intelligence, this book provides the roadmap to put it in action.

You will learn the Six Seconds EQ Model, a practical three-step process to become more effective with emotions -- plus use the code in the back of the book for a free assessment of your EQ strengths. There are a handful of people in the world who have proven experience raising organizational performance with emotional intelligence. Freedman is one of the leaders. Using stories and data from his work around the world with organizations such as the US Marine Corps, Schlumberger, and FedEx, Freedman provides a practical guide to this critical topic. This book will show you how to lead more effectively by engaging your own and your people s emotions.
