The power paradox : [how we gain and lose influence]

Keltner, Dacher. (Author). Griffith, Kaleo. (Added Author). Penguin Random House. (Added Author). Read by Kaleo Griffith. (Cast).

Summary: It is taken for granted that power corrupts. But how do we get power? This is the crux of the power paradox: by fundamentally misunderstanding the behaviours that helped us to gain power in the first place we set ourselves up to fall from power. Power isn't the capacity to act in cruel and uncaring ways; it is the ability to do good for others, expressed in daily life, and itself a good a thing. Dr. Keltner lays out exactly - in twenty original "Power Principles" - how to retain power, why power can be a demonstrably good thing, and the terrible consequences of letting those around us languish in powerlessness. Print run 60,000.
