Leadership and Self-Deception<\/em><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Self-deception\u2014our tendency to see the world around us in a distorted way\u2014is a common personal and organizational problem. Leadership and Self-Deception<\/em> explains how self-deception derails personal relationships and keeps organizations and leaders from achieving the results they want. Instead of focusing on producing results, many leaders are trapped \u201cin the box\u201d of distorted thinking\u2014they blame others to justify their own failures and can\u2019t see how they themselves are a problem. They create the \u201cpeople\u201d problems that plague many organizations.

The 48 Laws of Power<\/em><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In The 48 Laws of Power<\/a><\/em>, Robert Greene asserts that whether you like it or not, you\u2019re part of a never-ending game of power. You\u2019re either striving for and wielding power, or you\u2019re a pawn being played by someone more powerful than you. You choose your role.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This book is for those who prefer to be players rather than pawns. To turn you from an amateur into a master player, Greene has codified 48 laws of power based on historical examples of people who\u2019ve excelled or failed at wielding power, with glorious or bloody results (or both).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
