Chambre des Officiers
This is a remarkable scene of a military officer who is recovering from a traumatic facial injury, a girl, and her mom. It illustrates the power of KCG beautifully — look at the choices they each make… and the EQ resources required for each choice. NOTE: This is a commercial movie and normally we don’t […]

Ode to Joy Flashmob
This ad shows an orchestra “flashmob” playing Ode to Joy, there is something deeply touching about this apparently spontaneous (even though it’s carefully planned) orchestra creating a gift of joy in the public space. Sponsored by Spain’s Sabadell bank. Could be used for Optimism (sense of possibility), Empathy (emotional connections), Navigate Emotions (emotional transformation), or???

DRIVE
This is a great way to introduce the competency of Engage Intrinsic Motivation – probably don’t show the whole thing, but about 5 min, then discuss. Ideal for corporate/workplace audience.

Choice Points
This is a lovely video, created as a “trailer” for a movie they want to make – about how we reach “choice points” — it’s a little “new age” in the language, but I think it asks some powerful questions and has some beautiful footage about CHANGE, personally and societally. How do we step into […]

Daniel Beaty Knock Knock
This is an amazing performance and a theme that will touch many of us irrespective of race and culture. While my father was never locked away, I can certainly relate to the feeling of needing to imagine a father who would say the things I needed to hear. Great for a workshop on fatherhood, but […]

Smile & Hat
This video illustrates the “problem of the iceberg” with over-focus on the behavior-side without consistency between what’s inside and what’s outside. It’s very funny, but in a tounge-and-cheek way which won’t be appropriate for all audiences. Thanks to Tessy Britton for finding this one!

Dancing Wedding Procession
This is a very funny and uplifting video that could be used for “fun” or for talking about positive emotion, energy, emotional contagion. The expressions on people’s faces are delightful, and there’s something infectiously positive about the whole thing. What if life were more like this?

Clinton & Yeltsin Laugh video
Thanks to Bruna Martinuzzi for sharing this example of emotional contagion (here’s a White Paper on this: https://eq.org/library/white-paper-emotional-contagion-2/) Could be tied to empathy, CT, or choose yourself in terms of considering how emotions spread from one to another.

Emotional Contagion “Subway” video
Emotional contagion can be linked to Enhance Emotional Literacy (understanding the way emotions work), Increase Empathy (understanding how people might feel the way they do) and Apply Consequential Thinking (evaluate the effects of choice about feelings). Sometimes this is called “infectious” (as in PUFI). Important for… leaders, teachers, parents to understand their impact customer service […]

Oprah Marshmallow
Delightful clip of the re-creation of famous Marshmallow Study on delayed gratification – Goleman introduces it. Often used for intro to EQ, also Recognize Patterns and Apply Consequential Thinking are in evidence!

Vid: Failure Success
This shows a number of people who “failed” and how that turned into success (e.g., Lucille Ball & Beatles turned down, Abraham Lincoln defeated in 8 elections) “If you’ve never failed, you’ve never lived” Great for EXERCISE OPTIMISM and generally for resilience, learning, empathy, and defining success.

Outstanding Mirror Neuron vid from Nova
I taped this piece from Nova’s “Science Now” and edited it down a little – still a bit long @ 7 minutes – does an fabulous job introducing Mirror Neurons and the fact that we are “Wired to Connect.” Suggest you use for Empathy showing that it’s not a “soft squishy” thing but part of […]
