Here's interesting Harvard business review article that I came across today:
This article provides indepth analysis about the characteristics of a leader such as emotional intelligence and how they differentiate him from the rest of the crowd.
The article primarily assumes that while leadership certainly requires a "certain threshold" of analytical and technical skills, its the soft skills associated with leadership, defined as emo. intell. that typically distinguish oustanding performers from those who are merely adequate. The article furthers its talk about emotional intelligence which can be classified as a combination of different components such as such as self-awareness, self-regulation, motivation, empathy, and social skill ( which is interestingly defines as friendliness with purpose ). Overall, the article seems like a potential read for all the business school aspirants and future leaders!
