Emotion Informs, but Behavior Transforms. Emotional intelligence was groundbreaking in its time, offering valuable tools for self-awareness and managing emotions. However, while EI is crucial, it often doesn't address the root causes of performance challenges. People may take action based on emotional awareness, but they frequently don't achieve the intended results because they don't truly understand the deeper factors driving behavior and performance. This gap can lead to frustration, as even well-intentioned actions fall short of producing lasting change.

Adaptive Intelligence builds on the foundation of emotional intelligence by going deeper-focusing not just on emotions, but on understanding why we and others do the things we do, and why we often fail to take effective action when it's needed. Grounded in the science of behavior and evolutionary theory, Adaptive Intelligence provides a practical, evidence-based framework for aligning behavior with core values, overcoming obstacles, creating lasting change, and producing measurable results.

In this book, behavior analysts Dr. Paul Gavoni, USA Today and Wall Street Journal best-selling author, and Dr. Adam Ventura introduce the Behavior Alignment Compass, a powerful tool designed to help you navigate both self and organizational leadership. By understanding the true drivers behind your actions and aligning them with your values, you can break through personal and professional barriers, accelerate growth, and achieve the results you've been striving for.

What sets Adaptive Intelligence apart is how these scientific principles are brought to life through compelling, real-world stories. These stories help you apply the framework to real-life challenges, translating theory into action. With decades of combined experience, the authors provide actionable strategies, proven tools, and a clear roadmap to help you overcome challenges, bounce back from setbacks, and inspire meaningful change in yourself and others.
