<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"A visual exploration of how to embrace emotion at work and become more authentic and fulfilled while staying professional. When it comes to emotions at work, there's rarely a happy medium. In some offices, your boss might send snaps of her weekend getaway in Vegas, or your coworker might send twenty texts about how Susan ate his clearly labeled lunch...again. Other offices are buttoned-up emotional deserts, where crying is only allowed in the bathroom and you suspect your coworkers might be robots. Either extreme hurts employee health and productivity. [The authors] take a charming and deeply researched look at how emotions affect our professional lives and how we can navigate emotions at work. The modern workplace can be an emotional minefield (Do I shake my boss's hand or give her a hug? Did I forget to mute my phone on the conference call?) filled with unwritten rules. As our jobs become more collaborative, complex, and stressful, effectively embracing emotion is more important than ever"--<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b><b><i>Wall Street Journal</i> Bestseller! <p/><b>Next Big Idea Club selection―chosen by Malcolm Gladwell, Susan Cain, Dan Pink, and Adam Grant as one of the two most groundbreaking new nonfiction reads of the season!</b> <p/>A must-read that topples the idea that emotions don't belong in the workplace.</b><br><b>--Susan Cain, author of <i>Quiet </i></b> <p/><b>A hilarious guide to effectively expressing your emotions at the office, finding fulfillment, and defining work-life balance on your own terms.</b></b> <p/>How do you stop the office grouch from ruining your day? How do you enjoy a vacation without obsessing about the unanswered emails in your inbox? If you're a boss, what should you do when your new, eager hire wants to follow you on Instagram? <p/>The modern workplace can be an emotional minefield, filled with confusing power structures and unwritten rules. We're expected to be authentic, but not too authentic. Professional, but not stiff. Friendly, but not an oversharer. Easier said than done! <p/>As both organizational consultants and regular people, we know what it's like to experience uncomfortable emotions at work - everything from mild jealousy and insecurity to panic and rage. Ignoring or suppressing what you feel hurts your health and productivity -- but so does letting your emotions run wild. <p/>Our goal in this book is to teach you how to figure out which emotions to toss, which to keep to yourself, and which to express in order to be both happier and more effective. We'll share some surprising new strategies, such as: <br> <b>*</b> <b> Be selectively vulnerable</b> Be honest about how you feel, but don't burden others with your deepest problems.<br> <b>*</b> <b>Remember that your feelings aren't facts</b> What we say isn't always what we mean. In times of conflict and miscommunication, try to talk about your emotions without getting emotional.<br> <b>*</b> <b> Be less passionate about your job</b> Taking a chill pill can actually make you healthier and more focused. <p/>Drawing on what we've learned from behavioral economics, psychology, and our own experiences at countless organizations, we'll show you how to bring your best self (and your whole self) to work every day.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><b><i>NPR's</i> Favorite Books of 2019</b><br> <b><i>Fortune's</i> Best Business Books of 2019</b> <p/>A must-read that topples the idea that emotions don't belong in the workplace, <i>No Hard Feelings</i> offers a path towards a future I want to work in: an emotionally expressive, yet respectful (and high-performing!) workplace.<br> <i>--</i>Susan Cain, author of <i>Quiet</i> and Chief Revolutionary at Quiet Revolution <p/> <i>"No Hard Feelings </i>is both a charming, sparkling read and a clear-eyed roadmap to harnessing the things that make us most human into tools that will make you more productive, effective, and happier at work.
