Overview

 Why do some leaders get things done while others, with equal talent and intelligence, struggle to make an impact? The answer is not strategy. It is not effort. It is power and most executives don’t understand how to wield it effectively. The corporate ladder is not climbed by the most talented, it is conquered by those who understand how power actually works. In this no-nonsense masterclass, Stanford professor Jeffrey Pfeffer, one of the world’s most influential thinkers on leadership and author of 7 Rules of Power and 15 other landmark books on leadership and organizational behaviour, reveals the real rules of power and influence that separate those who succeed from those who stagnate. Drawing on decades of research, real-world examples, and his groundbreaking work on organizational dynamics, Pfeffer will show you how to:

• Navigate the hidden politics of organizations without losing your integrity
• Build networks and allies that truly help you get things done
• Influence decisions, shape outcomes, and create real impact
• Avoid the common pitfalls that trap even the most capable leaders

Stop hoping power will find you. Learn how to take it, manage it, and use it to achieve results that matter. This is power in action, designed for leaders ready to win.
