Title: Good leaders are tough nuts
Review: The reviewers raving about this book are misguided or they don't know what's going on in the real world. I'm a CEO and have over 5,000 employees. I'm tough as nails but have a moral compass that works. That is the most important thing....as well as a strong business sense to do what's right, treat everyone fairly, set high goals, demand a lot, pay well. I doubt it if Caruso or Salovey ever held a job or if they studied real leaders (seems like they may have done the latter but conveniently selected cases that makes their model seem to work). If you want to know what leaders do buy books written by real leaders. If you want to know what the research says then read real research based on leaders. This book is neither.
