Emotional intelligence has been increasingly recognized as a key determinant to professional success in today’s high stress environment both in life and at work. Research conducted on the subject shows that people with high emotional intelligence are happier, healthier and more successful. They have an awareness of their emotions, which makes them good leaders and team players.

In the Second Edition of this highly acclaimed book, the author describes emotional intelligence as consisting of three major dimensions-emotional competency, emotional maturity, and emotional sensitivity-which motivate an individual to manage and lead others with empathy and compassion. This reader-friendly book is an essential guide to identifying, understanding, using, and managing emotions.

Unique in presenting an Indian perspective, this thoroughly revised Second Edition includes: § Valuable new knowledge assimilated after extensive research in the industry; § Two new chapters that incorporate the latest Indian research in this field; § Innovative insights based on the sacred teachings of the Bhagvad Gita; and § A fully revised version of the popular EQ Test in view of the new data collected.
