The emotionally intelligent leader
\"Bestselling author Daniel Goleman first brought the concept of emotional intelligence (EI) to the forefront of business through his articles in Harvard Business Review, establishing EI as an indispensable trait for leaders. The Emotionally Intelligent Leader brings together three of Goleman's bestselling HBR articles, each showing the direct ties between emotional intelligence and measurable business results. In \"What Makes a Leader,\" Goleman shares his research that found that truly effective leaders are distinguished by a high degree of emotional intelligence. Without it, a person can have first-class training, an incisive mind, and an endless supply of good ideas, but he or she still won't be a great leader. In \"Leadership That Gets Results,\" Goleman draws on research involving more than three thousand executives to outline six distinct leadership styles, each one springing from different components of emotional intelligence. In \"The Focused Leader,\" Goleman explains why focus is crucial to great leadership. Focused leaders are in touch with their feelings, can control their impulses, are aware of how others see them, and can weed out distractions and allow their minds to roam widely, free of preconceptions\"-- Provided by publisher.

EXPORTING JAPAN'S WAY OF TEA
That white camellia was an apt emblem of the esthetic of tea, which has a way of putting ordinary things in a fresh light. The Japanese use the term ''mitate,'' which translates as ''reseeing.'' It is a way of transforming the mundane to a high esthetic plane. Sometimes the utensils are of museum quality. In a tearoom belonging to Sen Soshitsu, present head of Urasenke and the 15th in a direct lineage from [Rikyu], I was served tea in a bowl more than 200 years old. The chado attitude is that such objects are best appreciated in actual use. If they end up behind the glass of a museum display case, as one tea teacher put it, ''they die.'' ''For the past four centuries chado has been only for the Japanese,'' said Dr. Sen. ''For the next century, it should be for all people.''

Optimal : how to sustain excellence every day
Emotional intelligence is now embedded in our public discourse: an idea so pervasive and important in our work, culture, politics and society that leaders such as Jamie Dimon, CEO of JPMorgan Chase and New York City mayor Eric Adams have placed it at the heart of what they do. Daniel Goleman's book 'Emotional Intelligence' was the first to coin this idea and bring it to a mass audience. Now, more than a quarter of a century after it was first published, he and Rutgers professor of psychology Cary Cherniss take a fresh look at how emotional intelligence has evolved over the past few decades, reframing its importance in this definitive book. Beginning with a dissection of what makes for individual success, they then set out how high performance can be cultivated at every level, scaling up the concept to top team performance and outstanding organisations.

CHILDREN'S BOOKS; Sandwiches In Orbit
Though both books are dedicated to the crew members who perished in the ill-fated Challenger, neither book confronts the combination of fear, sadness and doubt that the accident stirred in the hearts of the nation's children. ''Your Future in Space,'' in listing all the missions into space, merely mentions in passing that ''on its tenth mission, Challenger exploded seventy-two seconds after lift-off,'' and names those who died. That's all. IN the introduction to her book, Sally Ride at least broaches the subject, and acknowledges that it gives added meaning to a question children often ask her about space travel: ''Is it scary?'' In view of Ms. Ride's active role in the shuttle inquiry - and her statement at one point that she would not be willing to go up again in a shuttle - her silence here is a surprise. She says she considered changing the text but decided not to do so.
Book Review
Ecoliterate
A new integration of Goleman's emotional, social, and ecological intelligence Hopeful, eloquent, and bold, Ecoliterate offers inspiring stories, practical guidance, and an exciting new model of education that builds - in vitally important ways - on the success of social and emotional learning by addressing today's most important ecological issues. This book shares stories of pioneering educators, students, and activists engaged in issues related to food, water, oil, and coal in communities from the mountains of Appalachia to a small village in the Arctic; the deserts of New Mexico to the coast of New Orleans; and the streets of Oakland, California to the hills of South Carolina. Ecoliterate marks a rich collaboration between Daniel Goleman and the Center for Ecoliteracy, an organization best known for its pioneering work with school gardens, school lunches, and integrating ecological principles and sustainability into school curricula. For nearly twenty years the Center has worked with schools and organizations in more than 400 communities across the United States and numerous other countries. Ecoliterate also presents five core practices of emotionally and socially engaged ecoliteracy and a professional development guide.

PUTTING THE WORLD ON HOLD
Edward Gibbon called solitude ''the school of genius.'' And yet psychology pays scant attention to its value and uses. It is a major omission, given that acts of genius borne of solitude have shaped world history - Buddha sitting under the bo tree, Karl Marx toiling away in the great library of the British Museum, Sigmund Freud sequestered in his study writing ''The Interpretation of Dreams.'' Dr. [Anthony Storr]'s point is deceptively simple: psychoanalytic thinkers underrate solitude and overrate relationships in gauging the ingredients of contentment. Solitude is the natural arena for most creative effort, and people who are alone need not be lonely and unhappy. Solitary pursuits, whether writing poetry, gardening, speculating in stocks or breeding carrier pigeons, ''play a greater part in the economy of human happiness than modern psycho-analysts and their followers allow,'' Dr. Storr writes. It is against the influential ''object relations'' school of psychoanalytic thought that Dr. Storr's arguments are directed. The seminal work of the British psychoanalyst John Bowlby and others reoriented the focus of Freudian theory from the need to control primal impulses to the ways an infant's earliest experiences of attachments shape all later intimate relations.

A Culture of Purpose
How innovative leaders create meaningful cultures that attract and retain top talent
Building a culture of purpose is one of the greatest challenges facing modern leaders, as today's best minds are looking for meaning, not just jobs. More than any other single factor, cultures of purpose power winning organizations, attracting the smartest, most creative, most passionate talent.
For leaders building cultures of purpose, the commercial pursuit of sustainability provides the most reliable blueprint. While sustainability has been commonly misconstrued as a description of a set of problems, Christoph Lueneburger shows that it is really a solution to problems, capable of inspiring people and forging cultures.Sharing his exclusive, in-depth dialogues with chief sustainability officers, CEOs, and board chairmen, Lueneburger reveals how sustainability works at places where it works best, including Chrysler, Unilever, TNT, Walmart, and Bloomberg. Featuring a clear three-phase process that helps leaders assess the talent needed to develop organizations characterized by energy, resilience, and openness, A Culture of Purpose offers leaders the right questions to ask in order to:
* Tap and Nurture Your Current Corporate Strengths: Learn how to recognize, cultivate, and leverage the competencies of your current talent to develop your leadership team.
* Hire the Right Team: Ask the right questions to identify the innate personality traits in potential new hires, regardless of level and function, to bring on board those most likely to succeed in and shape your organization.
* Craft Your Culture: Create an environment that unleashes these competencies and traits and pushes them to the fore. Shape how people relate to one another and collectively go for what would be out of reach to them individually.
Many books have described the \"what\" and the \"how\" of sustainability, but this is the first to reveal the \"who.\" Lueneburger changes dated preconceptions to show that sustainability is not an ideological mindset but a cultural trait of a resilient business. For leaders ready to build and strengthen a winning business, A Culture of Purpose is an education, a revelation, and an invitation to the next generation of success.
