Emotional Intelligence in Educational Leadership (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9783639094701)

Educational administrators in any capacity face great challenges in the new millennium and the Technology Age that did not previously exist. They can find their job to be very stressful and even overwhelming at times. By employing self-understanding and empathy toward others, positive changes for promoting academic achievement and a stronger sense of school community can be achieved. This keen sense of emotion, posited by Daniel Goleman as "Emotional Intelligence" (EI), is sometimes considered in the business and academic field as even more important than Intelligence Quotient (IQ). Therefore, this book provides insight into the field of school leaders and how the effects of Emotional Intelligence, not just degrees and experience, may increase knowledgeable judgment in making wiser decisions for collaborative teamwork in visions of the future for our schools.
