EQ Killed the Radio Star

(1 customer review)

Ever wonder why some people are so difficult to work with? Ever since we were in grade school, we have been asking questions like “Can’t we just get along?” and “If we could just work together, this project would be so much easier?”. Emotional Intelligence (EQ) in its most simplistic form is a way to describe the non-IQ forms of behavior in ourselves and others. Research has found that approximately 75% of a person’s success is due to their emotional intelligence, not their IQ.

In this book, Alan Vanderburg explores the connection between emotional intelligence, rock bands, and the workplace.  The book offers helpful tools and tips to create a better life and a more effective you.

Description

Your major project at work should have been a success. You had the strategy, the right people in the room, and support from upper-level management. So why did it fail?

It’s the same reason why many of your favorite rock bands break up. Drama, big egos, the inability to work with others, lack of listening, disrespect, talking behind other people’s backs, taking credit for others’ work, and the list goes on and on. Rock bands are put together for their IQ, just like teams in the workplace. Whether work teams or rock bands are successful depends on their EQ (Or Emotional Intelligence), not their IQ.

In the early 1990s Daniel Goldman unleashed the EQ movement and began the discussion around how important and impactful emotional intelligence is in your personal life and in the workplace.

The positive or negative effects of emotional intelligence can significantly change the outcome of your project or goals.

This book explores Emotional Intelligence in a new and exciting way by making the correlation between EQ, rock bands, and teams at work.

EQ Killed the Radio Star offers a simple explanation of Emotional Intelligence and presents six EQ tools that can help you increase your effectiveness and live a better, more productive life.

    What a fun way to gain a better understanding of EQ (Emotional Intelligence) while gaining the tools to put that understanding towards a positive impact on yourself and the people around you. Awesome examples of how EQ can and has positively and negatively impacted rock bands and people. A quick and effective read, not unlike the first book that changed my life, One Minute Manager. Highly recommend this book for any and all team members and family.
