What makes a successful business? How can we work most effectively as a team? What are the keys to being a great leader? Best-selling authors Daniel Goleman and Peter Senge address these questions in Working with Presence. From the importance of harmonized thinking to the role that tacit knowledge plays in every organization, they discuss how companies can transform themselves into learning organizations - positive environments where people work together, learn from mistakes, and communicate effectively to foster growth and success.©2007 More Than Sound LLC (P)2007 Audio Renaissance, a division of Holtzbrinck Publishers LLC

Great insight; unstructured.

Still relevant after nearly a decade. Valuable insights from leading leadership experts. It's a wandering conversation/interview, not a structured class. I find the best way to approach this content is to 1) commit to listen to it at least twice and 2) listen for the nuggets most useful to you.

Don't bother. Self indulgent chatter.

Would you try another book from Daniel Goleman and Peter Senge and/or Peter Senge and Daniel Goleman ?

I like these guys but this doesn't do them any favors. Should be a free product on one of their websites.

Has Working with Presence turned you off from other books in this genre?

no

How did the narrator detract from the book?

no narator, interview style.

If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from Working with Presence?

none, it's about 3 hours short of substantial content on the subject.

Disappointed

I did not find much value as I was expecting to learn more about how to work with presence and there wasn't much on it.
