Book Management by Emotional Intelligence and Why It Matters in Organizational Excellence

Download or read book Management by Emotional Intelligence and Why It Matters in Organizational Excellence written by John Ugoani and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Emotional intelligence is composed of factors that are critical to organizational excellence. It influences positive behavior and results to organizational success often measured by productivity, profitability, stability and sustainability. Every organization has its own invisible nervous system of connection and influence, and when organizational leaders value the perspectives of people of diverse backgrounds, such can lead to organizational learning that boosts competitiveness and organizational performance. For example, political awareness is necessary to performance because it helps management to accurately read and understand key power relationships, and the forces that shape views and actions of clients, customers, or competitors, as well as reading and accurately understanding internal and external realities. Managing for organizational excellence requires the mastery of internal pressures such as task demands, interpersonal relationships, organizational structures and arrangements, work conditions, management styles and behaviours and the need for the allocative efficiency of scarce resources. 210 respondents participated in the study conducted through the exploratory research design. Data were analyzed through descriptive and regression statistical methods and it was found that emotional intelligence explains organizational excellence. The study was not exhaustive due to limitations; therefore further study could examine the relationship between strategic management and public governance to see if it will help in finding a solution to the prevailing poor public governance quagmire in developing countries. It was suggested that to achieve organizational excellence organizations need managers who are qualified and competent to drive the organizations towards the paths of success and sustainability.

Book Employees  Emotional Intelligence  Motivation   Productivity  and Organizational Excellence

Download or read book Employees Emotional Intelligence Motivation Productivity and Organizational Excellence written by Gagari Chakrabarti and published by Palgrave Macmillan. This book was released on 2018-12-23 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on emotional intelligence, which has emerged as a factor in superior on-the-job performance and ability to lead an effective life. Based on an emerging country, namely India, the book deviates from traditional approaches by focusing on non-cognitive rather than cognitive skills to explain and predict performance and achievements. It finds that those with strong intrinsic non-cognitive skills, like trustworthiness, conscientiousness, adaptability, initiative and commitment have a better chance of becoming effective leaders with enhanced service-orientation, empathy and conflict management skills –traits desired by any organization striving for efficiency. It also demonstrates that while such imponderable, intrinsic skills matter, they cannot replace discernible psycho-social factors and hence, effective hiring strategies must focus on behavioural competence along with cognitive skills. The book also discusses organizations’ desire to ensure a working environment that is vibrant and positive in an attempt to prevent unconstructive or disruptive factors and to ensure improved performances over time. The book is a valuable resource for corporate personnel, as well as for researchers and practitioners in the field.

Book excerpt: In his groundbreaking #1 bestseller Emotional Intelligence, Daniel Goleman revolutionized how we think about intelligence. Now, he reveals practical methods for using these inner resources to more readily enter an optimal state of high performance and satisfaction while avoiding burnout. There are moments when we achieve peak performance: An athlete plays a perfect game; a business has a quarter with once-in-a-lifetime profits. But these moments are often elusive, and for every amazing day, we may have a hundred ordinary and even unsatisfying days. Fulfillment doesn’t come from isolated peak experiences, but rather from many consistent good days. So how do we sustain performance, while avoiding burnout and maintaining balance? In Optimal, Daniel Goleman and Cary Cherniss reveal how emotional intelligence can help us have a great day, any day. They explain how to set a realistic, attainable goal of feeling satisfied that you’ve had a productive day — to consistently work at your ‘optimal’ level. Based on research of how hundreds of people build the inner architecture of having a good day, they sketch what an optimal state feels like, and show how emotional intelligence holds the key to our best performance. Optimal is the culmination of decades of scientific discoveries bearing on emotional intelligence. Enhanced emotional intelligence pays off in improved engagement, productivity, and more satisfying days. In this book, you’ll find the keys to competence in emotional intelligence, and practical methods for applying this skill set more readily. It will equip you to become a highly effective leader and enable you to build an organizational culture that empowers workers to sustain high performance.

Book Emotional Intelligence

Download or read book Emotional Intelligence written by Daniel Goleman and published by Bantam. This book was released on 2012-01-11 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: #1 BESTSELLER • The groundbreaking book that redefines what it means to be smart, with a new introduction by the author “A thoughtfully written, persuasive account explaining emotional intelligence and why it can be crucial.”—USA Today Everyone knows that high IQ is no guarantee of success, happiness, or virtue, but until Emotional Intelligence, we could only guess why. Daniel Goleman's brilliant report from the frontiers of psychology and neuroscience offers startling new insight into our “two minds”—the rational and the emotional—and how they together shape our destiny. Drawing on groundbreaking brain and behavioral research, Goleman shows the factors at work when people of high IQ flounder and those of modest IQ do surprisingly well. These factors, which include self-awareness, self-discipline, and empathy, add up to a different way of being smart—and they aren’t fixed at birth. Although shaped by childhood experiences, emotional intelligence can be nurtured and strengthened throughout our adulthood—with immediate benefits to our health, our relationships, and our work. The twenty-fifth-anniversary edition of Emotional Intelligence could not come at a better time—we spend so much of our time online, more and more jobs are becoming automated and digitized, and our children are picking up new technology faster than we ever imagined. With a new introduction from the author, the twenty-fifth-anniversary edition prepares readers, now more than ever, to reach their fullest potential and stand out from the pack with the help of EI.

Goleman explores research that found that truly effective leaders are distinguished by high levels of self-awareness and sharp social skills. In "The Focused Leader," Goleman explains neuroscience research that proves that "being focused" is more than filtering out distractions while concentrating on one thing. In "Leadership That Gets Results," Goleman draws on research to outline six distinct leadership styles, each one springing from different components of emotional intelligence. Together, these three articles guide leaders to recognize the direct ties between EI and measurable business results.
