  • Publisher: Jossey-Bass; 1 edition (June 18, 2001)
  • Language: English
  • ISBN-10: 0787956902

How does emotional intelligence as a competency go beyond the individual to become something a group or entire organization can build and utilize collectively? Written primarily by members of the Consortium for Research on Emotional Intelligence in Organizations, founded by recognized EI experts Daniel Goleman and Cary Cherniss, this groundbreaking compendium examines the conceptual and strategic issues involved in defining, measuring and promoting emotional intelligence in organizations. The book’s contributing authors share fifteen models that have been field-tested and empirically validated in existing organizations.

Personality and Intelligence at Work


  • Paperback: 416 pages
  • Publisher: Psychology Press; 1 edition (April 11, 2008)
  • Language: English
  • ISBN-10: 1841695866

Personality and Intelligence at Work examines the increasingly controversial role of individual differences in predicting and determining behaviour at work. It combines approaches from organizational psychology and personality theory to critically examine the physical, psychological and psycho-analytic aspects of individual differences, and how they impact on the world of work.

Topics covered include the role of IQ at work as the best predictor of success, but also the importance of increasingly recognized social intelligences such as emotional intelligence (EQ). The significance of personality traits and the impact of temperaments on work performance are also examined, and the methods used to assess work behaviour and potential are reviewed. Psychological tests, which measure personality traits, are questioned as accurate predictors of behaviour at work, alongside other factors such as job satisfaction, productivity, absenteeism and turnover.

This new, thoroughly revised and updated edition of Personality at Work provides a comprehensive review of the relevant literature from psychology, sociology and management science. It will be of interest to students of organizational psychology and business and management studies, as well as HR professionals.

The Enthusiastic Employee: How Companies Profit by Giving Workers What They Want


  • Hardcover: 400 pages
  • Publisher: Wharton School Publishing (January 20, 2005)
  • Language: English
  • ISBN-10: 0131423304

The Enthusiastic Employee: How Companies Profit by Giving Workers What They Want
By:
David Sirota, Louis A. Mischkind, and Michael Irwin Meltzer
Publisher: Wharton School Publishing
Pub Date: January 2005

Employee enthusiasm can be an invaluable asset to a business, but 90% percent of employees become indifferent to their workplace over time, says this trio of management experts. How do they know? They’ve surveyed over four million workers in 89 countries over the past 30 years to find out (although conclusions in the book are drawn from research conducted between 1993 and 2003). So, what are the lucky ten percent of companies doing right? They’re meeting the three goals that the vast majority of employees desire at work: equity, achievement and camaraderie. And those goals go for all workers, whether they’re baby boomers, Gen X, Gen Y, or Gen D (digital). While explaining just what those terms mean, the authors provide plenty of examples of management doing things right: Former Alcoa CEO Paul O’Neill (later became the U.S. Secretary of the Treasury) met with hourly workers in the plant and gave them his home number so that they could call him if there were safety problems. Nordstrom’s employee handbook has one rule: “Use your good judgment in all situations.” Now there’s an organization that respects its workers. Numerous quotations from employees surveyed keep things brisk and absorbing. Bottom line: pure good sense on how to keep employees happy and productive

Smart Questions: Learn to Ask the Right Questions for Powerful Results


  • Hardcover: 320 pages
  • Publisher: Jossey-Bass (April 5, 2004)
  • Language: English
  • ISBN-10: 0787971375

Smart Questions offers an entirely new framework for creating solutions. Drawn from the authors’ many years of research and field experience, the Smart Questions Approach reveals how the leading creators of solutions in almost every profession and walk of life—including business, government, education, and even in families—think and approach their assignments. The author’s holistic thinking approach shows how to use three “foundation” questions—focusing on uniqueness, purposeful information, and systems—which must be explored for every problem. These three questions, an essential starting point for exploring problems, in turn lead to other key questions that will ultimately create effective solutions.

Double Your Income Doing What You Love: Raymond Aaron’s Guide to Power Mentoring


  • Hardcover: 191 pages
  • Publisher: Wiley (January 18, 2008)
  • Language: English
  • ISBN-10: 047017370X

Everyone wants to make more money. But many feel that to do so, they must sacrifice their lifestyle and work at a job they don’t particularly like. In fact, if you’re like most people, your life is likely filled with activities, obligations, and commitments that have nothing to do with your goals or your dreams, your life’s mission, or the things that you love. But it doesn’t have to be that way—and in this book, renowned success and investment coach Raymond Aaron explains why. Over the last twenty-four years, he has developed, tested, and refined the amazing goal-setting and goal-attaining system outlined in Double Your Income Doing What You Love.

Aaron breaks life down into six pathways, and then sets out a simple but highly effective system for you to set goals in all six categories every month. Using his MTO system, he teaches you how to set each goal at three levels—Minimum, Target, and Outrageous—so that you can always have some level of success (and often it is the Outrageous success of your dreams). As you follow his powerful system, you will find yourself beginning to achieve measurable successes, month by month. When you track your successes, you will see yourself begin to move ever closer to fully creating, and then living, the life you want—the life of your dreams.

Even if you have no idea what your life mission is, one of Aaron’s processes will help you to actually identify it. You can then begin to make good decisions about who and what you want in your life, based on how they support or don’t support your life’s mission. You will see your life inexorably moving forward in the exact direction of your choice.

Unfortunately, most people hope for more but settle for less. Raymond Aaron offers the tools to create a designed life, a strategically organized life, and a life that delivers to you what you want. It takes courage, but it is your right if you want it. This book will help you begin your new life and achieve the success you desire.
