My Newest Book – The Brain and Emotional Intelligence: New Insights

My new digital book, The Brain and Emotional Intelligence: New Insights, fills a gap between my last books on social intelligence and on leadership, and my next book, which will not be out for a year or two.

The digital format solves a problem for me: how to make available a critical mass of new learning that does not have the full heft of a regular book. This digital book pulls together a wide range of findings into some fascinating aspects of emotional intelligence. This is not an exhaustive, technical review of scientific data – this is a work in progress that focuses on actionable findings, on new insights you can use:

The academic debate on whether such an entity as "emotional intelligence" that differs from personality and from IQ gets a powerful answer from brain research.
Where the brain's ethical radar resides – it's not where you think.
The neural dynamics of creativity tell us why putting an innovative puzzle aside can be part of the solution.
Why the brain circuitry for drive, persistence, and motivation holds the answer to disengagement, a workplace epidemic.
How to enhance the brain states underlying optimal performance.
The simple key to rapport, resonance, and interpersonal chemistry.
Brain 2.0: our brain on the web – and the neural blindspot that we ignore at our own risk.
Why woman are more empathic than men – and when they are not.
The dark side of emotion intelligence: The Bernie Madoff syndrome.
How to make learning in emotional intelligence last.

Enjoy!
