Table of ContentsReviewsA remarkably insightful read on what power is, how it's gained and lost, and how it can be used for good. The masterful analysis by two leading experts will make you rethink some of your most basic assumptions about influence -- <b>Adam Grant, <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author of <i>Think Again</b></i> Power dynamics are tricky, frustrating and frequently destructive. A central cause is the lack of a concrete, usable model for thinking through how to diagnose and shift power dynamics. In Power for All, Battilana and Casciaro fill this void by providing both a model and numerous case studies to illustrate how each one of us can manage power to more productive ends -- <b>Roger Martin, bestselling author of <i>Playing to Win</i></b> Power, for All is an instant classic: a brilliantly conceived, beautifully written and highly informative guide to the critical but often misunderstood phenomenon of power. Battilana and Casciaro weave together insights from a wide range of research studies - brought to life through compelling stories - to present a profoundly moral case for how to use power to make our world better -- <b>Amy C. Edmondson, professor at Harvard Business School and author of <i>The Fearless Organization</i></b> In Power, for All, Battilana and Casciaro help us understand that power doesn't always have to destroy and take - it can be used to serve and build; and they show us how to organize in a way that combines our power with others. A necessary work for this cultural moment -- <b>Tarana Burke, founder of the 'me too.' movement and co-author of <i>New York Times</i> bestseller <i>You Are Your Best Thing<i></b> In an age when authoritarians are on the rise and freedoms are imperiled, Julie Battilana and Tiziana Casciaro offer a fresh, more hopeful view of how power can be shared by all citizens. Their conclusions, rooted in research and world-wide reporting, show that power can be dirty but in honorable hands, can also be an enormous force for good. This book will be invaluable to anyone asking how to acquire power, how to keep it and how to exercise it for moral purposes -- <b>David Gergen, senior political analyst at CNN, former White House adviser to four presidents</b> Author InformationJulie Battilana (Author) Julie Battilana is the Joseph C.
