This ARC from NetGalley came at a perfect time as I’ve been taking classes in Human Resources and leadership.
A must have book, especially for anyone in a senior role or looking to move into management. A lot of people seem to misunderstand what it means to be emotionally intelligent, managers especially. The author easily describes situations that can happen at any workplace and describe what the problem is - like problems with a people pleasing manager or micromanager. If you’ve worked long enough, you probably have come across these types of managers, but I’ve always wondered how they could really do better.
A great resource for an insightful look at EQ.
Shelly H, Reviewer
The Non-obvious Guide to Emotional Intelligence is one of those books that is informative, but not overwhelmingly so. It’s a light easy read with a few aha! moments peppered in. The author focuses on emotional intelligence as it relates to decision-making, agility (in leadership) and relationships. It takes an EQ cubed approach looking at the self, the relationship and the environment. Since emotionally intelligent individuals typically earn more, advance quicker and navigate professional and personal relationships more successfully, I highly recommend this book. This is a practical and insightful guide to building more effective relationships, creating more productive environments and becoming a more purposeful leader.
