Cover design for The Power of E.Q. by Patrick King

Renowned psychologist, writer and business coach Patrick King immerses readers in the topic of emotional intelligence and subtle nuances of human feelings. He teaches how to make a lasting first impression and empathize in four steps. The book describes the most accessible techniques for analyzing the inner motivations of others and shows the shortest ways to build rapport. The author explains how to step outside of your own perspective and read the emotions of others, why it is important to set personal boundaries and respect those of others, what is cold reading and how to become an expert at finding “clues” about each person.

The couple on the cover is carelessly riding a tandem bicycle over quicksand: these people already feel they are on the same page and see no obstacles on their way to absolute mutual happiness.
