EQ 2.0. Strategies for Leading Gen Z (en Inglés) - Thomas Austin

In a world of remote work, digital disconnect, and a workforce that demands more than just a paycheck, the old "Command and Control" model of management isn't just outdated-it's a liability. Today, the most successful leaders aren't just technical experts; they are Emotional Architects.

EQ 2.0: Strategies for Leading Gen Z is the essential manual for the modern manager. It provides a 20-chapter roadmap to mastering the soft skills that drive hard results-moving from reactive "Management 1.0" to a high-resonance, agile leadership style.

Whether you are leading a cross-functional hybrid team or navigating the high expectations of a Gen Z workforce, this book teaches you how to bridge the gap between technical goals and human needs.

The Anatomy of a Hijacking: Learn the neurobiology of stress and how to "unhook" from reactive impulses when deadlines loom or communication breaks down.
