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!

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.

What You Must Know About Emotional Intelligence
Every minute of every day we’re using our emotional intelligence either to bring about good results or bad in our work and relationships.
If you’re faced with a sudden deadline, and start to panic, how you manage those emotions and how you pull out of the panic-state is EQ at work. When your manager yells at you or your boss throws a tantrum, they’re not using EQ, and you have the chance to use yours in how you respond. When you and your partner seem to have devolved into pushing one another’s hot buttons, and blaming the other for the demise of your relationship, it’s time to start learning more emotional intelligence, save the relationship and make life enjoyable again instead of an ordeal. When you have young children or teenagers at home every minute is likely an EQ event for you and for them. The state of your EQ determines how much your children learn and how effective they can become in life. If you’re giving a presentation or trying to close a deal, your intuition can tell you whether it’s going well, and if not, how to change it for a successful outcome. And that’s emotional intelligence, too.

You have an idea of what “it” involves – maturity, common sense, forethought, getting along with people and being able to make things happen – but you’re not sure how to put it all together, and most importantly, how to improve.
You know it’s important and you want to improve yours, but how to begin.
YOU CAN’T JUST READ ABOUT IT IN A BOOK! We offer a full line of products and services which can help you develop mastery of the numerous lifeskills which make up your emotional intelligence. The EQ Foundation Course© is distance learning, 12 weekly lessons on the Internet to give you the basics. We also have mini-courses on the separate competencies, such as Intuition, and Resilience. Resilience! Isn’t that the key to it all? In fact, it has been named as the only successful way to handle stress and change. You could even call it Change Proficiency, and it can be learned. We also offer ebooks on various competencies of emotional intelligence, such as Creativity and Optimism, to help bring you up-to-speed, and general topics, such as “How to Build Your Career with Emotional Intelligence.” Emotional intelligence applies to every area of your life (career and relationships), and to all stages and transitions. BUT THAT’S JUST PART OF AN EQ DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM The catch is, after you read the books, you must put emotional intelligence into practice in real-life circumstances. And by definition you can’t do this alone. If you knew how to be doing it, you’d be doing it already. We offer COACHING in emotional intelligence – actual in-the-moment guidance for you as you assimilate what you’re read and learned, and start to put your new skills into action. This is the missing link that maximizes your chances of improving in this important area. WORK WITH AN EQ COACH To develop your own emotional intelligence, you must have real-life experience, and work with someone knowledgeable in the field who can coach you in putting the theory into action. To develop your child’s emotional intelligence, well, you can’t take your child any farther than you are, so start an EQ program today – distance learning, ebooks, and coaching. EQ coaching can be effective in person, by phone or by email. We offer all these services. On my website you’ll find a host of resources to get you started. But don’t forget the most important part – personal coaching. Get coaching from the person who trains and certifies other EQ coaches.
