Emotional Intelligence “…the most effective leaders are alike in one crucial way: they all have a high degree of emotional intelligence…emotional intelligence is the sine qua nonof leadership. Without it, a person can have the best training in the world, an inclusive, analytical mind, and an endless supply of smart ideas, but he still won’t make a great leader.” ~ Daniel Goleman, What Makes a Leader? In Harvard Business Review’s On Emotional Intelligence, 2015 A. Tagtow, ASPHN Annual Conference, June 2016
