Power Cues

Autor Nick Morgan
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 13 mai 2014

Imaginați-vă că susțineți o prezentare în fața unui consiliu de administrație; deși datele sunt impecabile, simțiți cum atenția audienței scade. Problema nu este conținutul, ci semnalele non-verbale pe care creierul celorlalți le procesează mult mai rapid decât cifrele de pe ecran. În Power Cues, Nick Morgan demonstrează că leadership-ul nu se rezumă la retorică, ci la alinierea intențiilor noastre conștiente cu mesajele biologice pe care le transmitem constant prin postură, voce și prezență. Apreciem modul în care autorul transformă descoperirile din neuroștiințe în tactici concrete, eliminând ambiguitatea din conceptul de „carismă”. Observăm că forța acestui text rezidă în rigoarea științifică; nu este un simplu ghid de dezvoltare personală, ci o analiză a modului în care creierul uman reacționează la autoritate și încredere. Cititorul care a aplicat ideile despre micro-expresii din Cues de Vanessa Van Edwards va găsi aici fundamentul biologic care explică de ce acele semnale funcționează și cum pot fi integrate într-o strategie de conducere pe termen lung. În contextul operei sale, dacă în Give Your Speech, Change the World autorul se concentra pe structura discursului public, în Power Cues acesta face un pas decisiv spre interior, explorând controlul stărilor emoționale proprii pentru a influența mediul exterior. Este o evoluție firească de la tehnicile de scenă la stăpânirea de sine necesară oricărui lider care dorește să navigheze cu succes prin interacțiunile complexe ale lumii moderne.

De ce să citești această carte

Recomandăm această carte liderilor care doresc să își rafineze prezența executivă folosind date, nu doar intuiție. Veți învăța să recunoașteți și să controlați „indiciile de putere” care dictează succesul unei negocieri sau al unei prezentări. Este un instrument esențial pentru oricine vrea să înțeleagă psihologia din spatele autorității și să comunice cu un impact sporit în orice context profesional.


Despre autor

Descriere scurtă

Take control of your communications—before someone else does

What if someone told you that your behavior was controlled by a powerful, invisible force? Most of us would be skeptical of such a claim—but it’s largely true. Our brains are constantly transmitting and receiving signals of which we are unaware. Studies show that these constant inputs drive the great majority of our decisions about what to do next—and we become conscious of the decisions only after we start acting on them. Many may find that disturbing. But the implications for leadership are profound.

In this provocative yet practical book, renowned speaking coach and communication expert Nick Morgan highlights recent research that shows how humans are programmed to respond to the nonverbal cues of others—subtle gestures, sounds, and signals—that elicit emotion. He then provides a clear, useful framework of seven “power cues” that will be essential for any leader in business, the public sector, or almost any context. You’ll learn crucial skills, from measuring nonverbal signs of confidence, to the art and practice of gestures and vocal tones, to figuring out what your gut is really telling you.

This concise and engaging guide will help leaders and aspiring leaders of all stripes to connect powerfully, communicate more effectively, and command influence.
