      This book might work better as a written text than as an audiobook. It's difficult to remember those lists of tips without taking some notes, which is easier to do from a written text. The narrator sounds like he's constantly out of breath, presumably because he's speaking too fast. This makes it harder to focus on the content. It does serve as an introduction to the topic with references to further reading.

      This book was extremely repetitive. The narrator mispronunces and strangely emphasizes a lot of words, which is distracting from the actual message. There are also a few religious tidbits that I absolutely could have done without, but not enough so to entirely ruin the book. It's a good starting point if you don't know much about emotional intelligence, but if you're looking for actual strategies to improve look somewhere else.

      This narrator never pauses after a sentence. Talks super fast and it’s hard to keep up. After 10 minutes in, I couldn’t take it anymore. I believe a lot of these reviews are fake.

      The book itself might have been interesting had I been able to follow it correctly. While I appreciate Mr. Montanez (I believe that’s the reader’s name) trying to do the best job he could, aside of some unfortunate errors which he had to correct (I guess these audio readings are not edited), too many words were mispronounced, both in accent placement as well as in phrasing emphasis, and this made it quite disconcerting to listen to and very difficult to follow and get through, certainly as a native English speaker myself (American English). If this were a free service then I wouldn’t say much, but you charge for this so I hope you’ll find readers who are better equipped to do the book justice. Thank you for understanding.

      Everyone knows that high IQ is no guarantee of success, happiness, or virtue, but until Emotional Intelligence, we could only guess why. Daniel Goleman's brilliant report from the frontiers of psychology and neuroscience offers startling new insight into our "two minds"—the rational and the emotional—and how they together shape our destiny.

      Through vivid examples, Goleman delineates the five crucial skills of emotional intelligence, and shows how they determine our success in relationships, work, and even our physical well-being. What emerges is an entirely new way to talk about being smart.

      The best news is that "emotional literacy" is not fixed early in life. Every parent, every teacher, every business leader, and everyone interested in a more civil society, has a stake in this compelling vision of human possibility.

      Given the subject matter of this book I fail to see that it was a good idea to have what sounds like a computer voice reading program reading it at a kazillion miles an hour. The voice's tone and rhythm is all off and many sentences start and finish in the wrong places. It makes it somewhat exhausting to listen to and, in my case, makes it necessary to listen multiple times to get the info to sink in. If anything listening to it just invokes feelings of frustration! In my opinion find the book in written form and read it, cos the content is useful but the experience of listening to it? .... not so much

      I decided to get this audiobook not just to learn how to understand and manage my emotions better but to understand the emotions of my family as well. I feel it was a useful tool especially if you have difficulty expressing your emotions or in the other end of the spectrum which is too emotional in every situation. There needs to be a balance but I was having a hard time reaching that balance so I decided to get this audiobook and it has been a tremendous help to me. I really recommend it.

      I have really learned a lot with this audiobook, I am a fan of audiobooks and I have that it taught me to control my emotions and to be a more dependent person in terms of my feelings, through that I was able to overcome many things. Today I am a person more focused on my goals. I recommend it with my eyes closed

      I enjoyed learning about emotional intelligence. I am working on personal growth daily so the ideas in this audio resonate with me completely. Thank you!

      A psicologia de vez em quando se vê surpreendida com o surgimento de conceitos que caem rapidamente no gosto popular. Não há nada de errado em que isso aconteça, dado que é desejo de toda ciência que seus preceitos sejam compreendidos e aceitos pela população leiga. O problema reside em popularizar o termo antes de comprovar a veracidade do mesmo.

      Na década de 90, o termo inteligência emocional (IE) tornou-se conhecido graças à obra 'Emotional Intelligence' de Goleman (1995), um professor da Universidade de Harvard. Em um breve período de tempo, o termo entrou no vocabulário de diversos segmentos da sociedade. Inclusive, diversas instituições de ensino infantil propõem atualmente, como atrativo, a educação da IE para crianças cujos pais se mostram ansiosos por um ensino diferenciado e voltado para o desenvolvimento do cidadão. Também, no mundo do business se realizam numerosas palestras, cursos de treinamento, consultorias, seminários e outros congêneres oferecendo "dicas" sobre como aumentar a IE. No mercado editorial pode-se encontrar diversas obras com o mesmo objetivo.

      Por que as pessoas têm se interessado tanto pela chamada 'inteligência emocional'? Ao que parece, a resposta pode estar relacionada com a suposição de que pessoas com melhor gerenciamento das próprias emoções são aquelas que provavelmente são mais bem sucedidas no mercado de trabalho e apresentam melhor qualidade de vida. Numa época altamente tecnológica e competitiva, mas com baixo nível de emprego, o investimento na IE surge como uma alternativa promissora para aumentar o potencial de empregabilidade, se não o próprio pelo menos o dos filhos.
