Emotional Intelligence Fights Obesity
This video was sent to me by a colleague at work.
I was immediately reminded of Daniel Pink, author of “A Whole New Mind” and frequent writer about emotionally intelligent design. Let’s face it, no amount of cajoling, criticizing or high pressuring can compete with sensitivity to the feelings of the intended audience. As a teacher, I prefer trying to find fun ways to communicate ideas, rather than badgering, lecturing and otherwise intimidating my students into learning what I think is important. To me, it just makes sense.
