And the Boss’s Day festivities here at 8cr continue…

Ear Candy: Earlier this week, Todd interviewed Justin Menkes, author of Executive Intelligence on the difference between knowledge and intelligence. Check out the podcast to learn more.

Eye Candy: Today, I posted two excerpts from Resonant Leadership by Annie McKee and Richard Boyatzis. The first part is an introduction and will give you a taste of the book. The second part is an excercise for leaders that questions, “Where Am I?” Tomorrow, I will post two more exercises from Annie and Richard’s book so use today’s exercise as a warm-up.

Until tomorrow, check out, savor and enjoy today’s eye and ear candy.

Pitch, tone, intensity of speech is critical to babies in learning language, and so, in respect of that process, it would seem logical that for adults, the effect is as real, and as important, in how we communicate with one another.
Perhaps that lesson was made evident but not too visible by Alexander Graham Bell and the invention of his telephone.
That humans receive the invisible touch of sound is unmistakeable in the number of cell phones in use on sidewalks of the nation, most in chatter, as much for information.
Not to mention the number of phone sex lines sold.
How people respond to sound would seem elementary in the physiology of humans, as well as animals, either for seduction, for discipline, or for intellect.
