What is Social Intelligence?

Social Intelligence is the ability to get along well with other people and to get them to cooperate with you.

People Skills?
Isnt social intelligence really just people skills?

S.I. = E.I. ?
Isnt social intelligence just a part of emotional intelligence?

Who Needs Social Intelligence?

Probably more people have lost jobs, friends, and mates due to social incompetence than for all other reasons combined. - Karl Albrecht I am not a crook. - Richard M. Nixon

The Power of Context - Awareness of: Situations Others Your Impact Your Options

Presence
Whatever else history may say about me when Im gone, I hope it will record that I appealed to your best hopes, not your worst fears; to your confidence rather than your doubts. - Ronald Reagan

Authenticity
The leader is the servant. So leadership is not having your own way. It's not for self-aggrandizement. But oddly, it is for service. It is for the sake of the led. It is a proper altruism. - Desmond Tutu

Clarity
The difference between the right word and almost the right word is like the difference between lightning and the lightning bug.

- Mark Twain

Empathy
"It's a beautiful day in this neighborhood, a beautiful day for a neighbor. Would you be mine? Could you be mine? - Fred Rogers (Childrens TV host)
"I saw people throwing pies in each other's faces and I thought why do we have to show demeaning behavior?"
