About the book

Having directly coached, trained and counselled over 1,000 executives across Sub Saharan Africa, UAE and United States of America on rocking their careers, businesses and life like champions, Abiola Salami discovered that emotions are powerful. They can make or destroy any individual. The magic of emotional intelligence therefore does not pose as a psychological or scientific piece. It is an instructional guide with real life stories and pragmatic tips, it aims to equip you with the wisdom needed to interact better with yourself and others.

You unlearn and manage negative emotions; learn and manage positive emotions as you build more rewarding personal and professional relationships with the people most important to your success.

As you read chapter after chapter, you will find yourself shedding off wrong perceptions about your emotions while acquiring the right knowledge about handling negative emotions and cultivating positive emotions. It is a must read for every champion who seeks to respond, grow and become more productive through work and life challenges.
