Amoral, cunning, ruthless, and instructive, this piercing work distills three thousand years of the history of power in to forty-eight well explicated laws. As attention - grabbing in its design as it is in its content, this bold volume outlines the laws of power in their unvarnished essence, synthesizing the philosophies of Machiavelli, Sun-tzu, Carl von Clausewitz, and other great thinkers. Some laws teach the need for prudence ("Law 1: Never Outshine the Master"), the virtue of stealth ("Law 3: Conceal Your Intentions"), and many demand the total absence of mercy ("Law 15: Crush Your Enemy Totally"), but like it or not, all have applications in real life. Illustrated through the tactics of Queen Elizabeth I, Henry Kissinger, P.T.Barnum, and other famous figures who have wielded - or been victimized by - power, these laws will fascinate any reader interested in gaining, observing, or defending against ultimate control.

Experienced managers have always known that what galvanizes John may leave Sally unmoved. But how do you decide which type of reward or incentive will produce the maximum effect in each case? This groundbreaking book provides some of the answers. Over a period of many years Sheila and Peter separately carried out research into motivation in the workplace. Both of them field-tested Sheila's motivation profiles with more than 1400 managers around the world. The outcome was a unique set of insights into what makes people work with a will.

Leadership and Self-Deception is the first book to identify a single, underlying cause of every form of leadership failure. Through the story of Tom - a "shluck" in his manager's words - readers discover that identifying and treating individual leadership problems as if they were separate and distinct is not enough to transform people into successful leaders. The authors suggest that the key to leadership lies not in what we do, but in how we "are." They explore this compelling secret: Self-deception is the central player and trap underlying all leadership failures, relationship issues, and performance problems in organizations. Leaders who live in the box of self-deception are trapped: they cannot lead, no matter how hard they try and no matter how many skills and techniques they employ. With convincing examples, the authors show clearly how self-deception operates and how to overcome it. While other books cover people skills, this one goes deeper, fully illuminating the...
