Aritra Dasgupta

A great book for anyone trying to analyze and understand the concept of emotional intelligence。 It gives a detailed insight on ways to improve EQ, which has become such an integral part in modern society。

Manar Abdelaziz

تمرن علي ضبط النفس لا تدع المزاج السئ يجعل اليوم سيئاً تحكم في لحظات الحزن الشديد والفرح الشديد وما يحملانه من التحمس للقيام بأمور تجلب الندم فيما بعد لغة الجسد ومناداة الأشخاص بأسمائهم

Offers practical steps to make you more emotionally effectivewith people, complements the original book very well。

“Since our brains are wired to make us emotional creatures, your first reaction to an event is always going to be an emotional one。 You have no control over this part of the process。 You do control the thoughts that follow an emotion, and you have a great deal of say in how you react to an emotion – as long as you are aware of it。”I loved the concept of this book - how emotions play into the four categories of self assessment, self management, social awareness, and relationship management。 But i “Since our brains are wired to make us emotional creatures, your first reaction to an event is always going to be an emotional one。 You have no control over this part of the process。 You do control the thoughts that follow an emotion, and you have a great deal of say in how you react to an emotion – as long as you are aware of it。”I loved the concept of this book - how emotions play into the four categories of self assessment, self management, social awareness, and relationship management。 But it was just hard to read because of the way it was written - it was very choppy。 I think it will be a good reference, but not necessarily a fun read。 。。。more

A book that guides me to be better version of myself & to maintain better relationships (Relationships include friendships, relationships with family members, business-client relationship and interactions with co-workers)。Who should read this book ?(1) Those who struggle to talk to other people when experiencing difficult emotional experience (frustration, disappointment, anger, annoyance, etc)。(2) Those who find themselves OFTEN feeling REGRETFUL of the decisions made when they're feeling disap A book that guides me to be better version of myself & to maintain better relationships (Relationships include friendships, relationships with family members, business-client relationship and interactions with co-workers)。Who should read this book ?(1) Those who struggle to talk to other people when experiencing difficult emotional experience (frustration, disappointment, anger, annoyance, etc)。(2) Those who find themselves OFTEN feeling REGRETFUL of the decisions made when they're feeling disappointed, angry, frustrated, sad, etc。(3) Those who have been feeling angry persistently due to chronic unmet needs especially those who struggle to speak up assertively when other people's behaviour negatively affect them。(4) Those who struggle respond or face other people's feedback(5) Those who struggle to deal with someone who disagree with them。This book is quite special to me as the author recommends the readers to take "Emotional Intelligence Test" which covers specific aspects of emotional intelligence and the assessment is provided with key access when you purchased the book。The book covers 'STEP-by-STEP' METHODS to develop knowledge on your own emotional state, to implement self-control especially talking to others when you're feeling frustrated or annoyed or angry for others' behaviour, to perceive other people's feelings and to interact with other people by utilizing the awareness of your own emotional state and others' too。What will you learn from this book ?1) Becoming an empathetic listener2) Talking to others who disagree with your opinion3) Basic approach to give feedback in a "NON-judgemental" manner4) Basic strategy to respond well to disagreementWhile the methods are well-structured and practical similar like manual book📚, the language style that authors use is clear (although some steps are stated with idioms)。 The authors provided sufficient examples to determine our core values and to shift our self-talk in ways to develop 'self-awareness' of our emotion & 'self control (Self-Management)'。 However, on the section where strategies in social interactions were elaborated, I feel like the examples are NOT sufficient the reader who does NOT know how to talk or express disagreement assertively (respectfully)。 I still believe that this book is still good for beginners on guiding themselves to develop awareness of how their emotions result in their behaviour that affects other people and to respond to their difficult emotional state👍 !!! READ BELOW !!!IN CASE if you need this reminder🖐Before this book shows practical tips, it is mentioned thatone key🔑 to HEALTHY RELATIONSHIPS (including Friendships/any kind of relationships) is "TRUST"How to build "TRUST" :1️⃣ 🗣 Open Communication ⬇️💡 A basic way to start :👉NOT Suppressing what we wanna say when others say/do something that bothers us ➡️ OTHERWISE, we get resentful of their behaviour in the long term➡️ we can't bear with them➡️ We deteriorate relationships/any kind of relationships (including friendships) by ending relationships with them abruptly。🧠 What WE ARE STILL UNAWARE OF:👉some people who made mistakes in what they say/behave, does NOT always mean that they're abusive。👉some of them are not aware of what they say/do(Their behaviour may be UNINTENTIONAL)👉 THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT WE NEED & CAN'T READ OUR MIND✔️ THUS, COMMUNICATE that we're uncomfortable on what they do/say AND what WE NEED from them⭐️Let them know to not repeat the same behaviour to us2️⃣ Willingness to Share👉sharing stories, joy, fun and be vulnerable with enforcing healthy boundaries。3️⃣ Consistency in Words 🗣Be consistent in communicating what you need/request (BOUNDARIES)。⭐️When we have communicate that their behaviour affect us and they still repeat the same mistake, let them know the consequences (for example: ending the conversation)。4️⃣ Consistency in Actions and Behaviour。⭐️ When they violate your boundaries, be consistent in actions and behaviour to actually set the consequence for their violation of our boundaries。⭐️ We need to be consistent in our action and behaviour by aligning with our values。5️⃣ Reliability in following through on the agreements of the relationships。 。。。more

Fantastic read! It's not one of those books that you read once, and you know it all。 As the authors points out towards the end, they recommend to read it at least once a year to practice/ brush up all the individual skills。 It will be interesting to know how many corporate firms have adopted this book's Talent Smart Appraisal test in their HR learning and development curriculum。 Though I would strongly recommend to take this test, twice, once before reading the book and once after reading and pr Fantastic read!

Jeremiah Lorrig

Mostly a forgettable book。 The concept is useful but mostly the long series of tips and examples became a blur。 Probably more useful to read a few articles on Emotional Intelligence。

Dani Bonam

Does not contain passcode for IQ testWell I ordered the online book and it did not contain the pass code for the IQ test despite advertising it。

Cary Lewis

Good book。 Insightful, and touched up on a-lot of subjects I already knew about。

Samantha Grant

It was ok。

Holly Williams

Not a book that will find its way back to the shelf anytime soon! Definitely want to continue to reread the sections where I am lacking the most so I can grow!Some of my favorite quotes,“Self management is your ability to use your awareness of your emotions to stay flexible and direct your behavior。”“Do you want to be right, or do you want a resolution?”

Tanner Moesch

This is the #1 worst book I have ever had the displeasure of reading。

Muhammad

It mostly emphasis on business talks or work related issues but can be applied on personal level I guess。 You might be already familiar with most of the stuff discussed in this book。In tough situations, it’s most likely that a person is highly affected negatively but to cope the situation well it’s really important to side-away personal grudges and carefully listen to the speaker。 Try to notice his body , gestures and all other visible cue。 Do not simply start taking in order to respond him but It mostly emphasis on business talks or work related issues but can be applied on personal level I guess。 You might be already familiar with most of the stuff discussed in this book。In tough situations, it’s most likely that a person is highly affected negatively but to cope the situation well it’s really important to side-away personal grudges and carefully listen to the speaker。 Try to notice his body , gestures and all other visible cue。 Do not simply start taking in order to respond him but to understand him well first and then address the problem and go for its solution。 If you are angry, take deep breath and cont down to 10。 This will rationally engage the brain and will help to side away the negative thoughts and on the top of that you will buy some time to react more constructively。 If someone you are taking to is ignoring you or there is a common awkward pause in conversation, don’t just keep repeating your points。 Instead bring her to the common day to day topics , once she broke the silence , then it’s easy to engage her on a topic you initiated。 Always look for the big picture, don’t respond to the small scenario。 。。。more

3。5/5- read for clinical ladder application for work as a self assessment tool

2。5/5

Harsh

Probably the most practical book on improving your EQ and hence really caring better for those around you。 If you want full value out of this book, it’s important to set the right expects。 The book takes at least 6 months - 1 year to fully apply and see the improvements。 It’s only the beginning of a lifelong journey。

Veronica

la verdad esta super este libro

Thu Trang Nguyen

April Dano

I've always had trouble with connecting with other people, i have read book on 'how to talk to anyone' and other help books, accidently came to this book and thought that maybe i'm going at it the wrong way。 My eq results in self awareness, self management, social awareness and relationship management were 5,6,5,6 consequently。 I am glad that i have found this gem。 Probably going to have to reread this in a couple of months。 I've always had trouble with connecting with other people, i have read book on 'how to talk to anyone' and other help books, accidently came to this book and thought that maybe i'm going at it the wrong way。 My eq results in self awareness, self management, social awareness and relationship management were 5,6,5,6 consequently。 I am glad that i have found this gem。 Probably going to have to reread this in a couple of months。 。。。more

An interesting topic。 Although, the strategies suggested here to hone the skills to improve self awareness, self management, social awareness and relationship management, are more clichéd statements and not something unheard of, and yet, it is good to be reminded over again。However, I do wonder, isn't realising emotions and then acting a different controlled way, on some instances, is more like lying , or on some other instances, more like manipulating other people to get one's way?

Very disappointed, I had high hopes for this book。 I thought it would give me more in-depth explanations on EQ and how to practice improving my EQ, but it seemed quite superficial- in my opinion, it was nothing more than a glorified expensive questionnaire。 Found it outdated, Americanised (sorry, I’m a European), disappointed with the movie clips (provided in the EQ Results Report) they were old from the 90s (thought it could have been brought up to date for the 2020s) I didn’t feel the movie cl Very disappointed, I had high hopes for this book。 I thought it would give me more in-depth explanations on EQ and how to practice improving my EQ, but it seemed quite superficial- in my opinion, it was nothing more than a glorified expensive questionnaire。 Found it outdated, Americanised (sorry, I’m a European), disappointed with the movie clips (provided in the EQ Results Report) they were old from the 90s (thought it could have been brought up to date for the 2020s) I didn’t feel the movie clips weren’t succinct to the point it was trying to make。 。。。more

Review coming at a later date!

Marc Incitti

I definitely expected a more scientifically-rigorous, at the very least a more comprehensive, critical review of emotional intelligence that included the paradigm backed by available evidence-based claims。This book contains good advice for mindfulness training。

Nasrin Shila

It was okay。 But it seemed there are too many things with little explanations。

Omar Rodriguez-Rodriguez

Short and to the point, practical advice well organized, and lists, lots of lists。

Ashraf Bashir

Very basic book on the topic, just scratching the surface, focusing on what you need to achieve with many techniques; not how you achieve such end goals。 The message is good, the end goals are clear, the way to connect the dots towards these goals is missing in this book。

Nikolay Gvozdevskiy

Хорошая книжка。 Написана со знанием дела, поделена на четыре раздела, каждый посвящён отдельной сфере эмоционального интеллекта с четкими рекомендациями по улучшению этой составляющей。 Причём, действительно, минимум «воды», которой так славны другие американские авторы бизнес-литературы。

Maeve Strathy

The information was good and useful。 The strategies were practical。 I just found it a bit salesy and pedantic。

Megan

I kept waiting for this to get better。 And then it ended。

Jesse Mechler

Very energizing book! I’m excited to start my EQ journey。 (Some of the suggestions for improvement could have used more explanation)
