Curing Emotional Tone Deafness





Curing Emotional Tone Deafness

Last night, Kevin rehearsed with his wife. On the drive to the office this morning, he grew even more confident that his boss would see things his way. After explaining to his boss that working remotely two days a week would not only improve his home life but also boost his productivity and engagement, how could she not agree with him? It was a no-brainer.
Unfortunately, it also turned out to be a no heart-er. Kevin explained himself perfectly, detailing how Jack and Olivia are at such busy ages now and how the layoffs at his wife's company have meant longer hours for her, but his boss returned a blank stare.
