About this listen

An indispensable tool kit for engaging and harnessing healthy conflict to drive success and happiness, and eliminate the pain and stress of toxic conflict.

While most people view conflict as a bad thing that should be avoided at all costs, the reality is that embracing conflict in a healthy way is the single greatest factor in driving success and avoiding painful failure. Don't Get Mad at Penguins breaks down the factors that escalate conflict to dangerous heights and shows us how to defuse conflict and make it work for us rather than against us. Just as toxins in our bodies make us unhealthy, slow us down, and cause us pain, the same holds true for toxins in our organizations and minds. They cause healthy conflict to become destructive, which then consumes an organization's energy and taxes its ability to compete, grow, and prosper. Team engagements become pained, client relationships are strained, and individual careers suffer. The same unhealthy, painful dynamics play out in our personal lives as well. The key to making conflict work for our benefit lies in removing toxins from our interactions, and Don't Get Mad at Penguins offers simple yet powerfully effective tools to do just that.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Real life stories

The Author Gabe speaks from real life experiences. I already used a technique in a difficult negotiation and when I explained to the other party his position in my words. He felt heard and we were able to resolve. I will recommend this book to anyone managing people.

Essential life skills by a brilliant storyteller

Loved every bit of this book. Most surely, this author is destined to appear on a B Brown podcast as a top recommendation.

Relatable, practical, insightful, formulated, entertaining! An essential read for anyone wishing to improve relationships in work and personal life.

A level of quality that can easily hang with Brown, Wiest, Doyle, Hayes, Bungay, et al.

Interestingly, the author is already wildly successful in business, making it clear his motivation for writing is rooted in his passion for helping us all become more understanding and connective.

Every aspect of this book has a clear purpose, is easy to understand, and provides practical tools that are easy to use. So good you will keep it handy for frequent reference, and purchase as a gift for friends and colleagues.

Better understanding of managing conflict than ever before

After my puppy literally ate the hardcover I bought, I went the safer route and listened to Don’t Get Mad at Penguins on Audible.

Thanks to this book, my mind has been opened up to how important healthy conflict is to leading a team and my own personal development.

DGMAP helped me in managing my expectations of others and has pushed me to be a better coach in the workplace — I’m now more in tune with the strengths and growth opportunities of those around me.

Would definitely recommend the read / listen!
