You can assemble the smartest, most capable professionals in an organization, and their success will hinge on the quality of their interactions because success depends on the ability to understand oneself and others. Interpret wrong, and stress and conflict will reign.

Find solutions to what’s stressing you out. View conflict (and what’s feeding it) differently and address it strategically.

Unflappable: How Smart People Quit Overthinking, Ditch the Drama; and Thrive at Work is a collection of game-changing tools, tactics, and frameworks professionals all around the world have used to wildly improve the way they work and live—to succeed faster, bounce back higher, and live happier.
