Finance ✦ Penny’s Take 🎧 Audiobook
The Emotional Intelligence Quick Book
Travis Bradberry & Jean Greaves · 2007
🎙 Narrated by Thom Pinto (Macmillan Audio)
74/100
👍 Worth It
This is a genuinely practical, well-organized introduction to emotional intelligence from a respected source, even if some of the workplace examples feel dated now. Heads up if you're audio-only: the book's bonus online EQ assessment was tied to a passcode printed in the physical copy, so you likely can't redeem it — but the narration itself is a clean, professional listen.
