| The Emotional Intelligence Activity Book: 50 Activities for Promoting EQ at Work by AMACOM Some useful activities |
| I like the emphasis of this book - if you're someone who runs workshops, then this is a catalog of ideas complete with how to set it up, how to conduct it, and so on. It does not go into EQ theory, just practical modules for seminars and workshops. I use it quite a bit in my work. The only reason I gave it 4 instead of 5 stars is that there is a lot of emphasis on teamwork issues, and there isn't enough on understanding the specific techniques of empathy or managing self. |
| The Emotional Intelligence Activity Book: 50 Activities for Promoting EQ at Work by AMACOM Not what I expected |
| I don't recommend this book unless you are looking for the same old stuff |
| The Emotional Intelligence Activity Book: 50 Activities for Promoting EQ at Work by AMACOM Not useful at home |
| These activities are clearly for use at work when you are the boss. Not useful anywhere else. |
| The Emotional Intelligence Activity Book: 50 Activities for Promoting EQ at Work by AMACOM Exclusively for leaders |
| The book contains some good activities, but the fact that they are ONLY for use with those in leadership positions was not reflected in the title. If you're looking for EQ activities for leadership development, this would be a useful book. Otherwise, look elsewhere. |
| The Emotional Intelligence Activity Book: 50 Activities for Promoting EQ at Work by AMACOM MORE A BOOK ON GUIDE QUESTIONS THAN ACTIVITIES |
| I was disappointed with this book. Most of the activities were introspective questions (pencil and paper tests). I was expecting activities that participants can use to improve their EQ. It was not like that at all. I wouldn't recommend this book to trainers who are looking for activities to make their EQ based workshops more interactive. Perhaps that is the reason why no sample of the "activities" were included in the preview of the book. |
| The Emotional Intelligence Activity Book: 50 Activities for Promoting EQ at Work by AMACOM Book Description |
| We've all heard of "IQ"...but what's "EQ?" It's "Emotional Quotient" (aka Emotional Intelligence), and experts say that EQ is a greater predictor of success at work than IQ. Companies are increasingly looking for ways to motivate and develop their employees' emotional intelligence. This book presents trainers and coaches with 50 innovative exercises to be used for either individuals or groups. The activities found in the book are grouped according to the various core competencies associated with Emotional Intelligence: * Self-Awareness and Control: an awareness of one's values, emotions, skills, and drives, and the ability to control one's emotional responses * Empathy: an understanding of how others perceive situations * Social Expertness: the ability to build relationships based on an assumption of human equality * Mastery of Vision: the development and communication of a personal philosophy The book also includes suggested training combinations and coaching tips. |
