But corporate learning management systems remain slow, hard to use, and difficult to maintain.

After selling more than 5,000,000 copies and being dubbed \u201ca revolutionary, paradigm-shattering idea\u201d by the Harvard Business Review, it\u2019s clear that Goleman struck a chord with business leaders.&nbsp; But, is it possible to create emotionally intelligent teams?&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/hbr.org\/2016\/07\/research-narcissists-dont-like-flat-organizations\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Research: Narcissists Don\u2019t Like Flat Organizations<\/a> by Emily Zitek and Alex Jordan in Harvard Business Review<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Flat organizations are having a moment. Research has shown that reducing hierarchy can lead to more satisfied employees and speedier decision making, and some companies have concluded that flatter structures would work better. Zappos, for example, became a \u201cholocracy\u201d in order to empower employees to act like entrepreneurs. Similarly, Treehouse eliminated managers after noticing that \u201cpeople had really great ideas but were powerless to implement them.\u201d\u2026<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/peopledevelopmentmagazine.com\/2016\/06\/03\/company-culture\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Company Culture \u2013 The Back Bone of Employee Retention<\/a> by David Walker in People Development Magazine<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The days of long-time employment at a single company are long gone.&nbsp; As job roles become increasingly varied and more competitive, the nation\u2019s workforce and company culture have demanded their roles to incorporate a better work-life balance than their predecessors. Whilst in the past job security was a concern for many, with growing and expanding industries this is no longer the case for the modern employee.
