Publisher's Summary
Now, Goleman teams with renowned EI researchers Richard Boyatzis and Annie McKee to explore the role of emotional intelligence in leadership. Unveiling neuroscientific links between organizational success or failure and "primal leadership," the authors argue that a leader's emotions are contagious. If a leader resonates energy and enthusiasm, an organization thrives; if a leader spreads negativity and dissonance, it flounders.
Drawing from decades of analysis, the authors show that resonant leaders excel not just through skill and smarts but also by connecting with others, using EI competencies such as empathy and self-awareness. And they employ up to six leadership styles - from visionary to coach to pacesetter - fluidly interchanging them as the situation demands. The program no leader in any walk of life can afford to miss, this unforgettable work transforms the art of leadership into the science of results.

decent 3 hours
Overall, this relatively short title is sprinkled with interesting insights and ideas and was worth the time.
There is alot of info for managers of groups and primarily focuses on building relationships, how and when to use different managerial styles, and why Emotional Intelligence is becoming more and more important in the business environment. Perhaps it would have been more useful if I had read his first book about Emotional Intelligence. He makes reference to it quite often, which can be somewhat irritating if you havent read it.

Great book
But read too fast. Maybe I was not in the right headspace to take it all in.

Great read
It would have been helpful to be broken down by chapter so this way one can go to a specific chapter

This is the Abridged version!
I listen to audiobooks of subjects like this while following along with the hard copy book. I spent the preface and first chapter of this trying to find where the narrator jumped to. Sadly I wasted a credit on this version - d’oh. Pay attention to what you are getting. I Just got the 8hr version. Here’s hoping I can follow along better.

Grab a pillow while you are at it.
This audiobook will put you to sleep, guaranteed. The author, tries hard I guess, but I found it so monotonous and the subject matter not presented well. The stories are shallow and lack emotional connection.

From the Master of the genre
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Daniel Goleman's name and achievements in education and leadership training, as well as mindfulness and ecology, are fully rooted in practical.
I read this when it was first released years ago and listened to it also I am reviewing it now to praise its foundations
EQ has become one th3f the keynotes of the mindful community and therapy and business and leadership
