In this episode of Growmance, Pavi shares different philosophies on empathy. For decades, a lot of emphasis has been put on certain aspects of intelligence such as logical reasoning, math skills, spatial skills, linguistic skills etc. Researchers were puzzled by the fact that while IQ could predict to a significant degree academic performance and, to some degree, professional and personal success, there was something missing in the equation because research showed that people with fabulous IQ scores were doing poorly in life by thinking, behaving and communicating in a way that hindered their chances to succeed. The missing part in the success equation is emotional intelligence, a concept made popular by the groundbreaking book by Daniel Goleman. In this episode, Pavi shares David Goleman’s framework for emotional intelligence and discusses how it can impact our career and personal lives. She also shares interesting concepts of empathy inspired by Paul Bloom, author of “Against Empathy” and Jamil Zaki, author of “War of Kindness: Building empathy in a fractured world” and whether it is actually doing more harm than good.
