On emotional intelligence

In having emotional intelligence named as a quality I bring to my work as a COO and in human resources or organizational development, I found this article on the dangers of operating from the framework of emotional intelligence being a necessarily positive thing rather interesting and spot on.  Personally, I try to cultivate emotional intelligence as a power for good but try to remain mindful to where it can veer toward manipulation or the awareness of how others may use it.
