Summary

Summary

In Ego vs EQ, Jen Shirkani shares strategies for using emotional intelligence (EQ) as a primary prevention tool to avoid career derailment. The executive leadership failure rate is high: two in five CEO’s fail in the first 18 months on the job and two thirds of business’ will disappear just a decade after founding. This book teaches you how to identify the most common reasons for leadership ineffectiveness, including the cascading consequences they create, and learn tools to prevent them. Drawing on real-life anecdotes from the author’s 20-years of coaching and consulting, Ego vs EQ provides research and case study examples in an easy to understand, practical format and is ideal for anyone currently in an executive leadership role, including business owners, or those wanting to become a dynamic future leader. Gildan Media and Bibliomotion are proud to bring you another Bibliomotion Audiobook.

Editorial Reviews

Editorial Reviews

“Shirkani’s examples effectively show that even the most successful executives fall victim to ego traps. By embracing their EQ, company leaders can avoid the isolation pitfalls that hinder successful management careers.” Publishers Weekly
“As senior leaders we can plod along doing what it was that got us to our current position, we can hire expensive consultants to help us try and change the organization, or we can raise our EQ to a more balanced position with our ego and cost effectively change our companies for the better. Read this book, follow its simple suggestions, and enjoy a more cost-effective transformation than you ever dreamed possible.” Rory Miller, president, The Williams Companies, Inc.
Ego vs. EQ is a substantive work about a most useful subject that impacts the effectiveness of every leader. You’ll learn a lot about yourself and you’ll apply the ideas frequently in your work.” Dr. Nido R. Qubein, president, High Point University
