Certainly ”a new, sustainable and better future” comes from ”an education that will make an impenetrable shield over dogmatic thought, blind consumption of information, destructive passions, and narcissism” that in turn leads to better leadership.

Not really, because considering the egocentricity that is embedded in their nature, if they understand how emotional intelligence works they would no doubt use it to exploit the public than for their benefit. the problem lies much deeper in our exam centered, work oriented education system which needs a complete overhaul. we need an education system that would liberate our minds, purify our hearts and nourish our health.
