Hardheaded & Softhearted

The former Microsoft CEO and an executive coach trained by Zig Ziglar share their business philosophy of balancing IQ with emotional intelligence. Rick Belluzzo and Krish Dhanam offer their "Lessons from the Boardroom to the Break Room" based on their extensive experience with companies such as Microsoft, Hewlett Packard, Quantum, and the Zig Ziglar Corporation. This little book captures their wisdom in capsule form, designed to guide readers along the path to a point where IQ meets EQ and quality of life results. When head and heart, skill and will, and strategic formula and emotional foundation merge, leaders can excel professionally and personally, and organizational cultures become more dynamic and productive. "Running a successful business requires IQ and EQ (emotional intelligence) because decisions affect people . . . With a business world where change is the new normal, you need EQ and IQ to prosper." — The Dallas Morning News "Rick Belluzzo and Krish Dhanam are living embodiments of their brand of leadership philosophy . . . [they] believe it is imperative that executives not only be able to steer their companies through these times of trouble, but also effectively communicate the need to change and their vision for doing so to employees." — Trinidad & Tobago Guardian
