Fully Human: 3 Steps to Grow Your Emotional Fitness in Work, Leadership, and Life
by Kathleen Jones
Hardcover – 12 February 2019
HGTV cofounder Susan Packard launches the next chapter in emotional intelligence (EQ), and shows how employees and business leaders alike can increase their satisfaction and productivity-in work and life–via her three-step path toward EQ Fitness.
Success is an inside job. EQ Fit leaders know that the emotional health of their organizations is key to their economic health, and it all begins with tending to one’s own emotional fitness.
Packard’s accessible guidebook has arrived just in time, since the landscape of business and leadership is changing at a blinding clip. As technological advances increase efficiency, old-school hierarchies are fading fast, and instead of top-down bravado, there’s a new path forward. She teaches an “inside out” practice of self-discovery, which helps readers uncover unproductive emotions and dispel them.
Packard shows how the most successful companies are rich with “connector” emotions like hope, empathy and trust building. She tackles unconventional topics, like how workaholism keeps us emotionally adolescent and how forgiveness belongs in the workplace, too. No one knows these truths better. Packard shares her EQ Fit-catalyzed success at HGTV and the stories of the executives she coaches in mindfulness and other out-of-the-box techniques.
The best leaders balance power with grace, and everyone can effectively use both resilience-an ability to endure tough situations and make tough decisions-and vulnerability-a willingness to open up, change, and admit when we need help-to be more effective. Packard offers us exciting new tools so we can bring our best selves to all we do.
