Topic of the week: Emotional Competence
Daniel Goleman, science journalist formerly for The New York Times, has published extensively about emotional competence. In his emotional competence framework, leaders reach a tipping point of star performance when they show strength in at least six competencies with at least one competency in each of the four emotional competence domains:
Self-awareness (or Recognition of Self): Self assessment, self confidence
Social-awareness (or Recognition of Others): Empathy, service to others
Self-management (or Regulation of Self): Self control, trustworthiness, concientiousness, adaptability, drive for achievement
Relationship-management (or Regulation of Others): Influence, conflict management, communication, vision setting, collaboration, catalyzing change
More articles forthcoming about emotional intelligence, neuroplasticity, neurobiology and practical steps to strengthen emotional competence.

2. An article about the possible scenarios that may unfold as China implements Article 23 in Hong Kong and Macau. China favors patriotic loyalty over all else. Watch Hong Kong.
