Produktbeschreibung

An essential guide to navigating the complexities of professional relationships.

Often, the most difficult aspect of work has nothing to do with deadlines, promotions, or competition. It has to do with the immense and beautiful challenges of dealing, on a daily basis, with our colleagues.

The people we work with can encourage, support, and energize us, However, working successfully around others, whether virtually or in person, is neither intuitive nor simple. It requires us to communicate effectively, to understand our own blind spots and biases, and to empathize with another person's perspective.

The School of Life has been working with organizations since its foundation, equipping employees with the emotional intelligence required to succeed.
