"Research shows convincingly that EQ is more important than IQ in almost every role and many times more important in leadership roles. This finding is accentuated as we move from the control philosophy of the industrial age to an empowering release philosophy of the knowledge worker age. Self-awareness, self-motivation, and regulation are foundational to empathy and social skills. This book gives abundant, practical findings and insights with emphasis on how to develop EQ."<br /> -- Dr. Stephen R. Covey, author, <i>The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People</i> and <i>The 8th Habit: From Effectiveness to Greatness</i>
