The Emotionally Intelligent Workplace

Cary Cherniss Β· 2001
76/100
πŸ‘ Worth It

Goleman's co-editorship and a Jossey-Bass imprint gave this 2001 collection real credibility, and the fifteen organizational models still serve as a useful empirical foundation for HR and leadership work. The age shows β€” workforce norms and organizational psychology have moved on in twenty-five years β€” but for readers building a foundational understanding of EI in institutions, the research base is solid. Treat it as a foundational text rather than a current playbook.

✦ Penny’s Take β€” this is The Review Group’s own editorial assessment. Penny’s analytical review line researched this book from real sources and scored it across the lenses shown below. It’s an honest first-party read β€” not a page-by-page personal one. The gold βœ“ Penny Tested mark is reserved for books Penny reads cover to cover herself.
