Brief summary
Do you have what it takes to succeed in your career?
The secret of success is not what they taught you in school. What matters most is not IQ, not a business school degree, not even technical know-how or years of expertise. The single most important factor in job performance and advancement is emotional intelligence.
Emotional intelligence is actually a set of skills that anyone can acquire, and in this practical guide, Daniel Goleman identifies them, explains their importance, and shows how they can be fostered.
For leaders, emotional intelligence is almost 90 percent of what sets stars apart from the mediocre. As Goleman documents, it's the essential ingredient for reaching and staying at the top in any field, even in high-tech careers.
And organizations that learn to operate in emotionally intelligent ways are the companies that will remain vital and dynamic in the competitive marketplace of today—and the future.
Comprehensively researched, crisply written, and packed with fascinating case histories of triumphs, disasters, and dramatic turnarounds, Working with Emotional Intelligence may be the most important business book you'll ever read.
Drawing on unparalleled access to business leaders around the world and studies in more than 500 organizations, Goleman documents an astonishing fact: in determining star performance in every field, emotional intelligence matters twice as much as IQ or technical expertise.
Readers also discover how emotional competence can be learned. Goleman analyzes five key sets of skills and vividly shows how they determine who is hired and who is fired in the top corporations in the world. He also provides guidelines for training in the "emotionally intelligent organization," in chapters that no one, from manager to CEO, should miss.
Working with Emotional Intelligence could prove to be the most important reference for bottom-line businesspeople in the first decades of the 21st century

The best book l came across this year .The most important things to me as a reader is a book that’s interesting which makes me to yearn for next chapter,a book that gives me new discoveries,that which makes me to question things that I never questioned before ,l found all these in Claim your mental Freedom 💯.
It has a simple, understandable, interesting style and language.
It let’s characters to speak for themselves,we see the life of the characters,what scripts they initially had ,what made them to question the ‘norm’ ,who helped them the journey to mental freedom, what life looks like after they attained self discovery which gave them mental freedom.
I like how the book brings out how we are guided by scripts which are dictated for us by parents or society and how we fall into that trap and we waste most of our time regretting about some decisions we make e.g career, profession,love and relationships, social media , education, environment, success etc.
I wish this book could be read by someone who has a dictated script and that it helps you rewrite your own script.
Thank you Saadia for this book

Perhaps the only description with which I can describe this book is that it is unique and interesting, a true miracle as novice writer. Simple words, yet of great significance. It contains clear and simplified words, but Its content is valuable, and a very deep and philosophical meaning that deserves contemplation.
The Author talks about many things, such as career, success, Social media and love…., in a gentle, unpretentious manner. I advise any reader or writer to read it and will never regret it.
