Book Description :
Is the need for power an evil motivation driven by greed and lust, or
is it a worthy goal that produces wealth, longevity, and leadership?
Pfeffer asks us to consider the more positive reasons that we reach for
power in our professional lives in order to feel in control, get
wealthy, and achieve our goals. The desire for power is a topic that is
often overlooked or disparaged in most inspirational leadership books
because leaders presenting their own careers as models tend to portray
themselves as noble and good, and omit discussing the power plays that
they used to get to the top. According to Pfeffer, we need to stop
seeing the world as a just and fair place, and actively develop those
qualities needed to achieve power. He offers advice on how to obtain the
initial position on the first rung of the ladder to power, how to take
advantage of social networks, build a reputation, and overcome setbacks.
Pfeffer never answers the question as to whether power leads to
happiness, but he insists that having it will ultimately put you in a
better place.
