Why EQ Matters More Than IQ | Book Insights on Emotional Intelligence 2.0 by Travis Bradberry & Jean Greaves

*In their number one New York Times bestseller, Bradberry and Greaves lay out the four key skills that – once adopted – will exponentially enhance your emotional intelligence. 

*The authors conducted extensive research into emotional intelligence, interviewing over half a million people in order to identify the traits that underpin high ‘EQ’. 

*In today's fast-paced world of competitive workplaces and turbulent economic conditions, each of us is searching for effective tools that can help us to manage, adapt, and strike out ahead of the pack. 

*It’s not hard to make the case that EQ is equally – if not more – important than cognitive intelligence, measured as IQ. But unlike cognitive ability, your EQ can be actively improved over the course of a lifetime. Infinitely practical, Emotional Intelligence 2.0 delivers expert advice for increasing your EQ to enable you to achieve your fullest potential.
