Quick and effective read !

Read this book in about 45 mims . It's to the point and provides an open process to managing ppl and emotions quickly and effectivly .

This was surprisingly interesting when it started from “manage your energy, not your time”, but later became disappointing. I seems that the authors makes many assumptions about the reader, but these assumptions are not clearly stated, which makes some reading irritating. The world of work is much broader and more varied than bank corporations, which seem to be the narrow perspective of the author, and the examples provided are not necessarily transferable to all realities.

I had never encountered the mental model of people having different types of energy, and that alone made this worth reading (especially since this work is relatively short)
