By Karl
Format:Paperback
Although Daniel Goleman's books have been outstandingly successful in bringing "emotional intelligence" to a wide audience, what none of his books SEEM to do is explain HOW to become more emotionally intelligent.
(Fair play note: Actually the original book tells the reader almost exactly how to do this, but you have to know the technique already in order to recognise it!)

Not surprisingly, a number of writers have tried to fill that niche - all to often without much success. What makes this booklet such a joy is that - as they say in a certain TV advert - "it does what it says on the tin". It really does offer practical, easy-to-implement ways to boost your EQ.

Following Goleman's formulation, the 55 tips are grouped under 5 main headings, offering guidance on:

- Self-Awareness
- Self-Regulation
- Motivation
- Empathy, and
- Social Skills.

A further point worth making is that each tip covers a separate topic, so you don't get reams of stuff on one subject and next to nothing on another.

In my opinion this is an excellent little introduction to the five "competencies" of emotional intelligence as described in Goleman's books.
I'd recommend this booklet as a perfect "stocking filler"-type present to give to anyone who is actively interested in emotional intelligence, or who just wants a practical overview of what it's all about; thereby proving that "the best things DO come in small packages".

By A. J. Bradbury VINE™ VOICE
Format:Paperback
This is, without doubt, THE best value for money of any EI/EQ product I've come across.

It offers 55 basic tips to help you to develop your emotional intelligence, divided up under the headings used by Goleman in his best sellers on the subject.
Moreover these are 55 genuinely separate tips rather than just variations on a theme.

In my opinion, given the time of year and the increasingly stressful conditions many of us have to operate under in the workplace, and often elsewhere, this is a pefect gift for anyone who would like to have more control over the way they live their lives.

This would be a bargain if it cost twice as much. At this low price it's an absolute steal!

Every single tip in this valuable guide is easy to understand and implement. It is not shrouded in idealogies although the pieces are well-founded in known disciplines and research, so it is digestible by everyone. It is the neatest and most practical book I have seen for the busy reader - and that is said having written several EI books of my own! A must for everyone interested in getting some peace.

Very short and not quite right
This is a very short and overpriced phamplet. Not quite what I was expecting. It is not really about emotional intellgience but rather general feel good principles. Read more

Good info, but very, very short
Bear in mind that, although cheap, this is a booklet - it's 18 pages in all, and which makes it very tiny. Read more

The reason why zero stars should become a rating
A dreadful pamphlet full of complete nonsense. Absolutely nothing new in this advert for Andy Smith and his EI / NLP ways. Read more

This is not about EI
I disagree with the first reviewer who says that this pamphlet confirms his view that EI is the same as NLP. It certainly isn't, at least the way Goleman discusses it. Read more
