Emotional Intelligence: Why It Can Matter More Than IQ

The premise of this book challenges the reader to be smart about ones own emotions and if those one works with. In doing so, people can accomplish more together. I have long believed this to be true, so this may be a case where I may only reinforcing my own belief more than developing new ones.

The abridged audio of this book was a bit frustrating to listen to. First, the production value was not what I'm used to. The reader at times sounded to be ending concluding a sentence only to continue with it, while sounding like starting a new sentence. Additionally, it is so abridged that this felt like seeing a country from the cockpit of an SR-71 Blackbird. It went by so fast that it was difficult to really absorb all the points and appreciate them.

This has whetted my appetite for the unabridged book and I plan to read it through one day.
