Emotional intelligence has become one of the most employed
notion in public speech as well as in punditry. Often associated with the
American psychologist Daniel Goleman, the notion itself found its way
in a tortuous manner, its coming of age reflecting the very maturation of
psychology from art to a well established science. Present people like to
believe they can predict and measure someone’s behavior from his or
hers socio-emotional abilities.
Florentina Hăhăianu’s inserts her contribution into this ungoing
debate with a special focus on the profile of the future intelligence officer.
At first, the author reviews the preceding literature so as to
make order through the jungle of semantics. The existing definitions
and their subsequent criteria given are legion, often fuzzy as each
author writing about the matter craves to trailbalze the discipline.
