Emotional intelligence can be a key to success in your life, especially your career. It corresponds to both being aware of your actions and your feelings and to know in advance how these elements will influence the choices and decisions of those surrounding you. If every time some mishap occurs you become distressed and upset, you still have to work a lot on your self-discipline skills. People with emotional intelligence are, in fact, highly capable of maintaining calm and control in difficult situations, especially when it comes to business.

Easy to follow, interesting and totally valid read
As a seasoned businesswoman and a consultant, I loved the content of this book and, the performance of the reader. I have written countless business plans. These reference books can be extremely dry and, hard to follow. This book, however, will be helpful to any business owner regardless of their experience level. I intend to recommend "How to Write a Business Plan That Doesn't Suck" to my clients. Great read and listen.

a little difficult to take seriously
While there were some good takaways, unfortunately there was a lot of America slang, this was mixed with it sounding like it was being read by Yogi Bear presenting on a shopping channel it was difficult to take seriously.
