Power at Work
31 Oct 07
Smart, nice people tend not to get ahead at work. They languish in backwaters frustrated that, even though they have high IQ and EQ, they haven’t risen to their deserved position of power.
What they are lacking is PQ - or political quotient. In other words they need to understand power. Power at Work will help them become politically intelligent and successful.
Unlike previous generations, managers today do not have the authority over all the resources they need to succeed. They can not command and control.
Instead they must learn the political arts of finding and using the levers of power in the organisation; they have to persuade and influence others, build coalitions and fight the right battles.
Power at Work offers a practical, skills based toolkit for people seeking to build and use power. It reveals the four sources of power and will show managers exactly how to generate and manage their own power effectively for success.
