Editorial Reviews

Editorial Reviews

“If you’ve ever wished that someone would pull back the curtain so you could learn from the use (or abuse) of power by the likes of Bill Gates, Barack Obama, Eliot Spitzer, Indra Nooyi, Rahm Emanuel, Warren Buffett, and Jeff Bezos, your wish has been granted. The Elements of Power neatly dissects the art and science of influence and leadership as practiced by leaders from every part of the globe.” —Tom Connellan, bestselling author of Inside the Magic Kingdom
“The Elements of Power is a banquet of ideas on the use of power for the price of an inexpensive dinner for two. It even has the added advantage of being both tasty and healthful.” —Inland Empire Business Journal
“Filled with insights into strengthening each power source, Bacon presents an energizing model for business leaders at all levels who want to increase their voltage.” —Niche
“The Elements of Power does an exceptional job of explaining the critical sources of power in any type of organization, how to build power, and how easy it is to diminish power once it is established. Through tangible examples, this book provides ways to better identify and understand how to fundamentally strengthen one’s organizational impact at all levels.” —Vicki Rawlinson, global head HR oncology, Novartis Pharmaceuticals Corporation
“Terry Bacon breaks down the sources of power and influence at a very granular level, allowing readers greater insight into both sides of the ‘Midas Touch’—use and abuse.” —Rahm Sitaraman, EAG franchise leadership development director, Coca-Cola
