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.

讀這本書,應當是從理論上對以往掌握的知識進行鞏固。進入職場,應當首先選擇靠近權力中心的部門與位置。好象一首詩吧,大概是楊萬裏寫的,最是西湖六月中,風光不與四時同,接天蓮葉無窮碧,映日荷花彆樣紅。錶達的是靠近天子的杭州,在中央部門工作雖然級彆是一樣的,但是權...

評分讀完此書,感覺有一點暈,感覺與宣傳的有一定的距離,這個與讀《君王論》之後形成清晰的思維不同。 到底問題在什麼地方? 這本書會教你成為一個油滑的職業經理,而《君王論》則會讓你成為一個戰略緻勝的領導者,或者乾脆說是教你如何做老闆。一個強調技巧,而另一個則教你戰...

49個番茄鍾的時間看完瞭這本書並做瞭摘錄。得常常提醒自己,看這本書的目的是在實際生活中運用,讓它能産生改變的行為,而不是像“虛假希望綜閤癥”一樣,僅僅覺得知道瞭就好像是自己已經掌握且能夠變成自己的行為一樣。僅僅知道是很容易讓人産生快感的,而真正采取行動纔是睏難的和能夠産生實際效果的。自勉。
