Daniel Goleman, PhD
Daniel Goleman, PhD, is a psychologist who for many years reported on the brain and behavioral sciences for the New York Times. He was previously a visiting faculty member at Harvard University and now consults and lectures internationally to business audiences, professional groups, and on college campuses.
His 1995 book, Emotional Intelligence, was on the New York Times best-seller list for a year-and-a-half, with more than 5,000,000 copies in print worldwide. It has been translated into nearly 30 languages and has been a best-seller throughout Europe, Asia, and Latin America. His 1998 book, Working With Emotional Intelligence, argues that workplace competencies based on emotional intelligence play a far greater role in star performance than do intellect or technical skill, and that both individuals and companies will benefit from cultivating these capabilities.
Goleman was a cofounder of the Collaborative for Social and Emotional Learning at the Yale University Child Studies Center (now at the University of Illinois at Chicago) and is cochairman of the Consortium for Research on Emotional Intelligence in Organizations, based in the Graduate School of Applied and Professional Psychology at Rutgers University. He is a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. |
