Why this is better

Verified all 3 corrections already fully applied in body text: Nooyi correctly attributed to PepsiCo, Goleman four-competency framework no longer misdated to 1995 (his actual 1995 book is separately and correctly cited in the bibliography), and Gottman's Four Horsemen correctly identifies contempt as the strongest predictor with no unverified 'dismissal' horseman. FAQ field does not reference any of these facts. No further changes needed.
