Two top business thinkers discuss the overwhelming importance of transparency and how to best operate in the new ethics-driven business climate in The Power of Truth, an original audio program created by New York Times bestselling author Daniel Goleman

The ideas expressed in Emotional Intelligence decades ago have taken on a life of their own. They spurred a movement, with enthusiastic adherents in the business world, in medicine and healthcare, at home, in the field of education and the world at large. Several million people, including business managers, human resource departments, healthcare workers, teachers, parents and students, have applied the ideas and principles expressed in Emotional Intelligence to their fields with tangible and quantifiable results. Leading with Emotional Intelligence Conversations is an ongoing dialogue series that begins with luminaries in the field of business. In the world of business, we have only scratched the surface of how principles of emotional intelligence can increase profitability and efficiency in the workplace.

It's in the nature of an organization to want to spin information, but in reality, covering up painful truths can have negative consequences. For the best organizations, it is clear that the future is all about transparency. Businesses and organizations can only win by showing they have integrity. The good news, according to Bennis and Goleman, is that organizations can change, they can choose truth over spin—as long as their leaders have the emotional intelligence to create transparency as a core value and an ultimate goal. Every organization, from small business to large, private and public, can benefit from the lessons and ideas in The Power of Truth.

Daniel Goleman, Ph.D., covered behavioral and brain sciences for the New York Times for twelve years and is co-director for the Consortium for Research on Emotional Intelligence in Organizations at Rutgers University. He has taught at Harvard, his alma mater, and addresses groups and businesses around the world. He is the author of Emotional Intelligence: Working with Emotional Intelligence, and The Meditative Mind, and is co-author of Primal Leadership and Destructive Emotions.
