Managing with Power

Politics and Influence in Organizations

By: Jeffrey Pfeffer

Narrated by: Jeffrey Pfeffer

Most organizations and managers are filled with good ideas - the problem is implementation.

Professor Pfeffer discusses the importance of understanding power and influence, diagnosing points of view on decisions, knowing the strategies and tactics for the effective use of influence, and appraising the role of influence in organizational innovation and change.(P) and ©1995 Stanford Alumni Association
