Summary

Most organizations and managers are filled with good ideas - the problem is implementation. Power and influence, rather than being the organizations' last dirty secrets, are in fact secrets for success. 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.

Great, short content. Bad recording.

Great, short content. Unfortunately the quality of the audio is not the best (sounds a bit old).

Sound quality horrendous…

Content really good but the quality of sound is shambolic. Dr Pfeffers tone is very engaging but you have to play at a volume that hurts your ears one second and leaves you trying to listen to the rest of the sentence with every sinew.
