It is said that emotional intelligence makes up 80 percent of one's success. Ever since the 1995 publication of US writer Daniel Goleman's best-seller, Emotional Intelligence: Why It Can Matter More Than IQ, EQ has been seen by leaders and educators as the solution to many social problems. In some Western countries such as the US, emotional intelligence is now taught widely in secondary, business and medical schools. EQ is important. But our enthusiasm for it has hidden a dark side, says a recent article in The Atlantic. Recent research and studies show that as people improve their emotional skills, they become better at manipulating others. When someone knows what others are feeling, they can motivate them to act against their own best interests. Does this remind you of those "managers" at pyramid scheme companies? Hundreds of thousands of otherwise cautious and rational people have been brainwashed by their impassioned speeches and become bankrupt as a result. Social scientists have begun to document this dark side of emotional intelligence. A study by the University of Cambridge found that when a leader gave an inspiring speech filled with emotion, the audience was less likely to look over the message and remembered less of the content. Researchers call this the "awestruck effect" , but it may just as easily be described as the dumbstruck effect, says The Atlantic article. Leaders who master emotions can rob us of our ability to reason. If they have self-serving motives, or their values are out of step with our own, emotional intelligence becomes a weapon of manipulation and the results can be destroyed. Another recent study from Kyoto University shows that people with high interpersonal EQ influence others' emotions based on their own goals. _ According to them, emotional intelligence helps people disguise one set of emotions while expressing another for personal gain.
