Story4.5 out of 5 stars 14
While some of us enjoy a lively debate with colleagues and others prefer to suppress our feelings over disagreements, we all struggle with conflict at work. Every day we navigate an office full of competing interests, clashing personalities, limited time and resources, and fragile egos. Sure, we share the same overarching goals as our colleagues, but we don't always agree on how to achieve them. We work differently. We rub each other the wrong way. We jockey for position.

Influencing those around us and supporting our own well-being requires us to be self-aware, know when and how to regulate our emotional reactions, and understand the emotional responses of those around us. No wonder emotional intelligence has become one of the crucial criteria in hiring and promotion. But luckily it's not just an innate trait: Emotional intelligence comprises skills that all of us can learn and improve on.

Too theoretical!
This book is mainly about team EQ and group interactions, with a little touch on personal development. The content is too theoretical with minimal useful guidance in my view.

Mostly non-actionable unenlightening anecdotes
Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?
The chapter on Agile Emotional Intelligence was the only chapter worth listening to.
The male narrator was nauseating and I found him unbearable to listen to.
Would you be willing to try another book from Harvard Business Review? Why or why not?
Maybe
Would you be willing to try another one of Susan Larkin and James Edward Thomas ’s performances?
Susan - Yes
James - No Way Sorry
If this book were a movie would you go see it?
No

Worst Monotone Narrator
Total snooze fest. I had to keep rewinding content as I would find myself thinking about something else. The content and case studies were very well chosen and were very meaningful. It's a shame they were narrated in the dullest monotone ive ever heard. Couldn't get through the one and now I want to go and return all the other HBR books I've downloaded.

It gets you thinking
I like books that start debate and get you thinking. Some generally good ideas within the book. Being good at your job isnt generally good enough when you are trying to succeed in management. This is one of 4 books i have from the series in one of the areas i have probably struggled in most. Good for ambitious new managers or managers who habe struggled to climb the ladder after manager.

lots of really great information for anyone working in a business environment. Emotional Intelligence is a critical element for success that is too often overlooked or left to instinct.
