Acclaimed psychologist Daniel Goleman introduces his groundbreaking discoveries about the emotional mind in this PBS program. The author of the bestseller "Emotional Intelligence," Goleman focuses on emotion as another measure of intelligence, redefining what it means to be "smart." Viewers learn about tools people can use to improve their health, family life, and professional prospects. Goleman refutes the belief that IQ alone determines destiny, demonstrating the vital role that strong interpersonal skills play. According to Goleman's research, people who are emotionally intelligent tend to have more success in their lives as parents, partners, and workers because they master the five basic emotional competencies: self-awareness, managing emotions, motivation, empathy, and social skills.
