The term “emotional intelligence” first emerged in the ‘90s. Since then, numerous studies have shown that a high EQ — Emotional Quotient — is more important than brains or talent in determining leadership success.

With the U.S. on the verge of recession and dozens of global crises facing the next president, we need to evaluate the presidential candidates on the basis of their EQ, not just on their political views.

Hank Clemons is a leadership consultant and corporate trainer who’s an expert in helping people hone their emotional intelligence skills. He can explain how to identify, manage, and use your emotions to build a better career and stronger relationships.

Hank reveals:

• Which candidate is most likely to become the next “Great Communicator.”

• Whether Hillary’s persistence has helped or hurt her political career.

• The No. 1 reason President Bush has earned record-breaking low approval ratings.

• Whether McCain’s strength in surviving a POW camp means he would also make an effective president.

• Which candidates have shown these EQ traits: competence, assertiveness, empathy and initiative.

Fun call-in show.
