Presentation Description |
Description of Topic/Presentation: Back when we were young, we read all sorts of books for leisure, such as “Lord of the Rings”, “Harry Potter”, “A Wrinkle in Time”, etc. There was no requirement except that it was a good and entertaining read! However, things have changed now as adults – we also look for books that help us grow. Especially, since we are also project managers (or aspiring project managers), we look for relevant books to help us become better project managers, better members of a team, and better leaders. Let’s make the learning easier and have the material stick by taking part in the PMI-OC Book Club! At this meeting, we will discuss the current book, "Emotional Intelligence" by Daniel Goleman. We will explore the content and its themes and discuss possible actionable takeaways. “Drawing on groundbreaking brain and behavioral research, Goleman shows the factors at work when people of high IQ flounder and those of modest IQ do surprisingly well. These factors, which include self-awareness, self-discipline, and empathy, add up to a different way of being smart—and they aren’t fixed at birth. Although shaped by childhood experiences, emotional intelligence can be nurtured and strengthened throughout our adulthood—with immediate benefits to our health, our relationships, and our work.” Click here to learn more about the PMI-OC Book Club!
