[Ultrasensitive Persons at Work]
Through numerous testimonies, Saverio Tomasella illustrates how the working world can wound and exhaust ultrasensitive persons, whom he defines as being both highly sensitive and very empathetic. The interviewees describe their own strategies to protect themselves, despite the pressure, against the excess of stimulation and the incomprehension of their professional entourage—who frequently reproach them for being too vulnerable, too emotional, or for takings things too personally. The author also offers some suggestions to get highly sensitive persons to better express their particular strengths: listening skills, intuitiveness and creativity. This book underlines how the corporate world sometimes struggles to welcome and integrate diverse profiles, thus depriving itself of their talents.
