EQ is definitely something that can help one in life, particularly leadership. He is certainly correct that EQ is not scientifically valid. Goleman took the valid work of others and "interpreted" it to create/support EI. It probably should be called a theory, a process, a framework, whatever.
After learning about EQ, and practicing it, my leadership abilities took off. I've taught it to dozens of engineers who say they are now much more influential, better team players, and better communicators. Some have said it's changed their careers.
EQ is most certainly a thing, just not a trait. It's sort of like saying being a good listener (active listening, listening with intent) is not a thing because you can't measure it. |
