Jeffrey Pfefferis the Thomas D. Dee II Professor of Organizational Behavior at the Graduate School of Business, Stanford University. He is the author or coauthor of fifteen books, including Leadership B.S., Power, The Human Equation, Managing with Power, and The Knowing-Doing Gap. Pfeffer has led seminars in thirty-nine countries and for numerous US companies, associations, and universities. He has won many awards for his writing, has an honorary doctorate from Tilburg University in the Netherlands, and was listed in the top 25 management thinkers by Thinkers50, and as one of the Most Influential HR International Thinkers by HR Magazine. He lives in Hillsborough, California.
In this crowning achievement, one of the greatest minds in management theory reveals how to succeed and wield power in the real world.
Over decades of consulting with corporations and teaching MBA students the nuances of organizational power, Jeffrey Pfeffer has watched numerous people suffer career reversals even as others prevail despite the odds.
Our most common mistake is not having a realistic understanding of what makes some people more successful than others. By believing that life is fair, we tend to subscribe to the “just-world phenomenon,” which leaves us unprepared for the challenges and competition of the real world.
Now Pfeffer brings decades of his incredible insights to a wider audience. Brimming with counterintuitive advice, numerous examples from various countries, and surprising findings based on his research, this groundbreaking guide reveals the strategies and tactics that separate the winners from the losers. Power, he argues, is a force that can be used and harnessed not only for individual gain but also for the benefit of organizations and society. Power, however, is not something that can be learned from those in charge—their advice often puts a rosy spin on their ascent and focuses on what should have worked, rather than what actually did. Instead, Pfeffer reveals the true paths to power and career success. Iconoclastic and grounded in the realpolitik of human interaction, Power is an essential organizational survival manual and a new standard in the field of leadership and management.

評分好吧,推薦一下。典型勵誌書,包裹著所謂實驗研究成果。有趣的是暗含瞭美國人的權謀思維是什麼樣子的。留學美國,外企工作,初到歐美的中國人,值得一看。
评分2011-05-28,太實在瞭
评分看前八章就行瞭, 博客思聽翻譯名為《善良心機》,很喜歡這名字,花一晚上一口氣讀完,深刻而係統的講解如何獲得權利,完全顛覆以前的視角,其他的成功學和人際關係學的書都弱爆瞭,強勢文化,看似在講人際關係,其實是鍛煉自己的氣場,如何讓人更善於交際,有效的交際,強烈推薦,反復讀

评分給瞭些比較實際的建議,其實首先是willingness,接著纔有後麵一係列的方法論,和大量例證。
