When you understand YOUR OWN emotions, you literally achieve a new level of intelligence. You no longer let fear control your behavior. You make smarter decisions because you are no longer influenced by your emotions.

Penguin presents the unabridged downloadable audiobook edition of Emotional Agility by Susan David, read by Claire Gordon-Webster. Every day we speak around 16,000 words - but inside our minds we create tens of thousands more. Thoughts such as 'I'm not spending enough time with my children' or 'I'm not good enough to present my work' can seem to be unshakable facts. In reality they're the judgemental opinions of our inner voices.

Boring performance, boring textbook language

Summary
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.
Critic reviews
“A thoughtfully written, persuasive account explaining emotional intelligence and why it can be crucial to your career.” (USA Today)
“Good news to the employee looking for advancement [and] a wake-up call to organizations and corporations.” (The Christian Science Monitor)

Excellent book, terrible narration
Although, I’m a fan of this book, fascinating content and I’ve bought a hard copy also.
I don’t think I will be able to finish the audio book though as the narration is unpleasant to listen to.
The hope Audible will change this at some point but for now, to those very interested in this book, I suggest reading it instead.

overrated
bad bad bad read..
If not dead already from boredom, you'll certainly be no more 'emotionally intelligent' reading/listening to this tome.
Long winded, self-congratulatory and tons of tedious human brain physiology trivia and minutiae listing various emotional impairments and what not.
You could sum the whole thing up by saying 'along with IQ, being emotionally mature is important'.
Message to author - You dont need to understand engines in order to drive an automobile.

Good book. Not so as audiobook.
I was looking forward to this book after hearing an interview with the author, Daniel Goleman. I was pleased enough with his narration of the Preface or Introduction. However, when the main narrator started Part One, I found hit tone and cadence very robotic sounding. It was such a distraction and annoyance that I stopped listening after the first chapter. I ended up returning the audiobook. Disappointing.

Too bad the editing on this amateur level. The preview only covers the introduction read by the author which is great. When the narration from Barrett Whitener starts horrible editing starts too. Mechanical, sped up, monotone narration makes it really hard to enjoy and focus on the book.

Narrator too Robotic
Absolutely struggled to finish. Forced myself to out of sheer will. Most memorable moment was when it was over. First reason I did not enjoy it is that the narrator was extremely robotic and monotone. For a book about emotional intelligence, the narrator read with zero emotion. which made it difficult to stay with. The next reason I did not enjoy it is that it was not what I expected. I was looking for a book about emotional intelligence as it applies to leaders, CEOs, business relationships, etc...and this book was not that. I would not recommend this book to anyone else.

This book talked an awful lot about school age children and strangely, child molesters. I'm an adult, looking for ways to improve myself NOW. Looking back on my youth and reasons and examples of how things affected my emotional intelligence does nothing for me. I really didn't get much out of this book, except many wasted hours and the expense of this book. More drivel I could have done without.
