"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.

Loved Or Hated, But Still Germaine (The Australian)
THE year was 1972, and Judy Lattas was a 16-year-old schoolgirl, reading, for the first time, a new book by Australian feminist, Germaine Greer.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------


She talked about different department members: Bob, who disagreed with anything anyone proposed. Alice, who gave up at the first sign of defeat. Nancy, who didn't trust anyone. Surya, whose autocratic leadership style turned everyone off. Sergio, who had no flexibility or creativity.

My reply was not the quick-fix answer Anna was hoping for. "Your company culture needs a redo," I said. "The best way to get people to buy-in to your idea is to take the time to establish a culture of emotional intelligence."


Why? Because EQ competencies increase leadership ability, team commitment, and a positive attitude toward problem-solving.

Mastering EQ competencies and using them becomes a value of the organization, "the way we do work around here." This is deep infrastructure change.


Employees in such an EQ culture assume cooperation, self-regulation, and feedback, and have resources and processes for managing emotions. They know how to negotiate disagreements and engage in proactive problem-solving. They respect one another.

They share a common language so when arguments arise, they can refer to "constructive discontent," and when setbacks occur, they talk about "resilience." A shared commitment to optimism greases the wheel, making it more likely that their individual and group potential will be achieved.

Establishing an emotional intelligence culture can be accomplished by The EQ Foundation course©, an interactive Internet course; ezines such as "EQ in the Workplace," EQ assessments, individual coaching, and group process work. Work with an EQ coach to establish an EQ culture in your organization. Then an "idea" can be judged on its merits, not unresolved emotional issues among participants.
