Influence without Authority

Book Review

   by:getAbstract    
Original Author: Allan R. Cohen and David L. Bradford
This excellent leadership guide by Allan R. Cohen and David L. Bradford offers a classic, necessary set of prescriptions for anyone working in a flat, team-based organization. That is to say, it is a guide that will prove useful to almost everybody employed at a contemporary organization. The waning of the old hierarchical organization, with its clear lines of authority and control-command management styles, puts a greater emphasis on your individual ability to achieve your goals by enlisting support from people who, often, have no obligation to provide it. getAbstract recommends this clear, jargon-free outline of the basic principles you need to know to influence others, even if you lack sufficient authority.
