"Feel the Feeling"

What do you think about the section in the EI book titled, "Feel the Feeling" (pg. 107)? I've only read the first couple of pages in that section, but I'm not sure it is so easy to change your mood and emotions so quickly.

Alfreda's Philosophy

Just wondering what you all thought of her personal leadership philosophy.

I found it interesting, considering that we are currently learning about emotional intelligence, that her first point was charisma. Her definition of charisma includes the ability to excite, encourage, and inspire as well as recognizing the importance of interpersonal skills.

Wow - I completed the emotional intelligence (EI) instrument last night and found it alot of fun actually. I am extremely curious to see how my responses to the odd variety of questions/tasks translates into data regarding my EI. As much as I knew EI was a problem area for me and that I was apprehensive about this section, I now find myself excited and can't wait to meet with Bob about the results! Cheers, Michelle

Connections between Maxwell and emotional intelligence?

So you've read Maxwell's book on connecting (or a good portion of it at least) and you are starting on the EI book.  I'm curious what connections (if any) do you see between Maxwell's principles and the topic of emotional intelligence?
