"Understanding Emotional Intelligence in Six Seconds."

Inside Change: Transforming Your Organization with Emotional Intelligence
by Joshua Freedman, Massimiliano Ghini, MBA

Many times the books on leadership focused on systems, management, etc., not taking into account the complex (and powerful!) system of our emotions. Josh Freedman integrate much of the new neuroscience with a comprehensive look and analysis of how people can make successful change by honoring the people involved, integrating emotional intelligence skills, in conjunction with keen business sense.

There is so much to offer in this book, it is like reading an"Operational Manual" in each chapter. This is a must read for those who are looking for ways to change, starting from the inside!

Joshua Freedman, author of "Inside Change"

     

The above video is the results of a team of educators ,versed in an experiential approach to learning that's both joyful and meaningful, wanted to be sure their organization maintained a commitment to distilling big ideas into bite-sized pieces.

The research says it takes around six seconds for those molecules of emotion to get absorbed back into your body after you've had a reaction. For someone to recognize the feeling of compassion -- and it was around six seconds.

Thus, Joshua Freedman's organization was named "Six Seconds"

It takes six seconds to manage anger.
It takes six seconds to create compassion.
It takes six seconds to change the world.

There is science behind the name and the flood that is triggered, delivered, and absorbed in about six seconds of even emotion. Understanding Emotional Intelligence in Six Seconds.

Each experience involves an emotional reaction, and to deal with emotions effectively, a person must: observe emotions, feel emotions, bring forward the specific emotion, develop and pursue a new thread of action. Practicing regularly the above you can improve the level of emotional intelligence. Rather than measuring some coefficients, it is useful to identify factors that prevent optimal use of skills that exist and learn how to use these factors effectively. Emotional intelligence has no boundaries, everyone who is ready and would like to improve the level of emotional intelligence can do it.
