Rating: Summary: Rare Find Review: A book that has good EQ activities is a rare thing. I was also pleased to buy it for only $17 new at Amazon from a vendor called Talentsmart in the "More Buying Choices" section. They sent their catalog with the book and I bought another book from there that was really great called The Emotional Intelligence Quickbook. It was more of an overview of the whole field with a free online EQ test and it had the latest findings in the field of EQ.

Rating: Summary: Great Book! Review: I liked the Emotional Intelligence Activity book because it was so different than most of the exercise books on my shelf. I am an Executive Coach and I am often looking for material that challenges my clients. The activities in the book are characterized by difficulty which helped me to make decisions about which exercises to use with which clients. I also found the notes to the trainer and coach very useful. It deepened my understanding of what Ms. Lynn was trying to accomplish with the exercise.

Rating: Summary: Great book for leaders Review: I think the Emotional Intelligence Activity book is very useful for anyone who is a supervisor or manager. The activities really made me think about how I interact with my employees. I was surprised at how much I learned about my attitudes. I'm pleased to be able to recommend it to other supervisors or managers who want to improve their relationships with their staff.
Rating: Summary: MORE A BOOK ON GUIDE QUESTIONS THAN ACTIVITIES Review: I was disappointed with this book. Most of the activities were introspective questions (pencil and paper tests). I was expecting activities that participants can use to improve their EQ. It was not like that at all. I wouldn't recommend this book to trainers who are looking for activities to make their EQ based workshops more interactive. Perhaps that is the reason why no sample of the "activities" were included in the preview of the book.
Rating: Summary: Exclusively for leaders Review: The book contains some good activities, but the fact that they are ONLY for use with those in leadership positions was not reflected in the title. If you're looking for EQ activities for leadership development, this would be a useful book. Otherwise, look elsewhere.
Rating: Summary: Great Book! Review: The Emotional Intelligence Activity Book is a great book for trainers. I've used several of the exercises and have found the participants responded quite well. I especially like the notes to trainers and coaches. I found that the information was very helpful to increase my understanding of the subject.
