Goleman's Framework for Leadership

Goleman's Framework for Leadership emphasizes emotional intelligence as key to effective leadership. It includes five components: self-awareness (understanding one's emotions), self-regulation (managing emotions), motivation (driving oneself), empathy (understanding others’ feelings), and social skills (building relationships). Leaders who develop these areas can better connect with their teams, adapt to challenges, and inspire confidence. Goleman’s model suggests that emotional intelligence, more than technical skills alone, determines leadership success, fostering a positive work environment and effective decision-making.
