Title
The Power Principle: INFLUENCE WITH HONOR
Description
This self-help book reflects various types of power and how to develop principle-centered power in your life, which is defined as power that inspires loyalty & devotion, transcending time & place. Such power is based on trust & respect & survives even after one dies. There are 3 types of power: coercive, which relies on the premise of control & uses fear as its instrument; utility, which is based on fairness, the exchange of what you can do for me with what I can do for you; & principle-centered, which is based on what you can do with others. The author tells us that his purpose in writing this book is to encourage us in our work with people, & he recommends that we choose principle-centered power as the primary way to influence others in our key relationships. Such power requires us to grow, to challenge our assumptions, and often to change our whole orientation in life. A guide on how to influence people without coercion or fear explains how to get people to respect who you are, what you stand for, and where you want to get in life.
