Emotional Success – The Power of Gratitude, Compassion, and Pride By: David DeSteno
How could I not be grateful to the author for reminding the Corporate world that their Human Capital is and remains the best investment to make in.
We human beings, being Human have a monopoly in creativity and empathy even the most advanced AI cannot take away.
Leadership should acknowledge our value, and we will do well not considering ourselves mere “resources” any longer.
I have listened to several books on self-control, and this is by far my favorite. it included lots of social science research and critically analyzed experiments. the only reason I gave it four stars is that I wish it had finished with a final chapter on concrete ideas for employing these emotions in everyday life. Also, I wish that it had gone into more depth about how to foster gratitude instead of people feeling like they owe you something. Favors sometime backfire if people feel like they owe you. but it’s difficult to determine how people will react to a favor if you don’t know them extremely well. Tokybook
