OPTION B THE DARK SIDE OF EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE

1 Some of the greatest moments in human history were fuelled by emotional intelligence. When Martin Luther King,
2 Jr. presented his dream, he chose language that would move the hearts of his audience. “Instead of honouring this
3 sacred obligation to liberty,” King shouted, “America has given the Negro people a bad check.” He promised that a
4 land burning “with the heat of oppression” could be “transformed into an oasis of freedom and justice,” and
5 envisioned a future in which “on the red hills of Georgia, the sons of previous slaves and the sons of former slave-
6 owners will be able to sit down together at the table of brotherhood.”
7 Delivering this electrifying message required emotional intelligence—the ability to recognize, understand and
8 manage emotions. Dr. King demonstrated remarkable skill in managing his own emotions and in generating emotions
9 that moved his audience to action. King delivered a perfectly balanced speech based on reason and emotion, on
10 anger and hope.
11 However, emotional intelligence may also have a dark side. Another one of the most influential leaders of the
12 20th century spent years studying the emotional effects of his body language. His name was Adolf Hitler. Practising
13 his hand gestures and analysing images of his movements allowed him to become “an absolutely magnetic public
14 speaker,” says historian Roger Moorhouse. Leaders who master emotions can rob us of our capacities to reason. If
15 their values are different from our own, the results can be devastating. New evidence suggests that, when people
16 have self-serving motives, emotional intelligence becomes a weapon for manipulating others.
