Guía de competencias emocionales para directivos


Book Description

Los interesados en aplicar la inteligencia emocional en su trabajo tienen a su disposición muchos libros sobre este tema. Sin embargo, no existe un libro para directivos de empresas que recopile y explique, de forma exhaustiva, todas las competencias emocionales: éste es el espíritu con el que se ha elaborado esta obra, dotándola además de mayor actualidad al incorporar los últimos avances de la neurociencia, la psicología positiva y la praxis empresarial. Esta visión multidisciplinar e innovadora amplía su campo de interés no sólo a directivos de organizaciones, sino a responsables de equipos de personas, investigadores, educadores, etc. Los autores explican además que un Liderazgo del siglo XXI debe incorporar expresamente en su definición a las competencias emocionales, y proponen una novedosa forma de hacer más eficiente su implantación, aportando y desarrollando el concepto de clústeres de competencias. Estos planteamientos teórico-prácticos cobran especial relevancia en el contexto actual: sus autores son españoles e incorporan un estudio realizado a empresas del Ibex-35 en donde se dan pistas sobre las competencias emocionales más necesarias para salir de la crisis. Cualquier crisis puede superarse en menos tiempo y con menor coste si los que tienen la responsabilidad de gestionar empresas o áreas de negocio de las mismas, son capaces de transformarse en mejores líderes, desarrollando de forma eficaz tanto las competencias técnicas como las emocionales, dentro de un contexto de valores éticos centrados en al dignidad de la persona.

Growing Up in a Culture of Respect


Book Description

Far from the mainstream of society, the pastoral community of Chillihuani in the high Peruvian Andes rears children who are well-adjusted, creative, and curious. They exhibit superior social and cognitive skills and maintain an attitude of respect for all life as they progress smoothly from childhood to adulthood without a troubled adolescence. What makes such child-rearing success even more remarkable is that "childhood" is not recognized as a distinct phase of life. Instead, children assume adult rights and responsibilities at an early age in order to help the community survive in a rugged natural environment and utter material poverty. This beautifully written ethnography provides the first full account of child-rearing practices in the high Peruvian Andes. Inge Bolin traces children's lives from birth to adulthood and finds truly amazing strategies of child rearing, as well as impressive ways of living that allow teenagers to enjoy the adolescent stage of their lives while contributing significantly to the welfare of their families and the community. Throughout her discussion, Bolin demonstrates that traditional practices of respect, whose roots reach back to pre-Columbian times, are what enable the children of the high Andes to mature into dignified, resilient, and caring adults.
