“This book is packed with metaphors to understand the concepts and real-life examples to bring the concepts alive. As soon as you open Emotionally Intelligent Leadership, you’re taken on a personal journey of discovering and practicing EIL.”
―CYNTHIA CHERREY, president, International Leadership Association, and vice president, Princeton University

“Few books exist that take the concept of leadership for college-aged students and boil it down to three discernable yet interrelated components. The authors have done a tremendous job to make this book an invaluable tool as part of an academic course on leadership or simply for one’s own personal development and self-assessment.”
―KEVIN W. BAILEY, vice president for student affairs and program coordinator, College Student Affairs Administration Program, University of West Florida

“The concepts presented here are essential as students become balanced leaders who are driven by responsibility, integrity, and a desire to build relationships among those they serve.”
―LEAH K. EICKHOFF, program development coordinator, Alpha Sigma Alpha

“As we continue to develop the next generation of leaders, we need more resources aimed at helping us understand the ‘why’ behind our actions, the nuances that make each of us unique and special human beings. This ability to understand others, in addition to ourselves, provides the foundation for everything else we do in leadership development.”
―A. PAUL PYRZ, JR., president, LeaderShape
