When i teach some of this and it sounds like it dovetails a lot of what you're sayingi it's all about being big, balanced, still and slow. Ye. One other thing i'll mention, n this gets a little bit more into the realm of things that some people feel uncomfortable with, is recognizing how we use space and what th conveys about power. So whenever we, you know, move in on someone, physically, touch them the shoulder, or touch their things, even, um, it's a kind of an aggressive way of behaving.
Power exists in every relationship — whether we like that idea or not — and to be effective in any role, power needs to be understood.
In this episode, Matt Abrahams sits down with Professor of Organizational Behavior Deborah Gruenfeld to discuss her new book, Acting with Power: Why We Are More Powerful Than We Believe. Deborah shares how body language can give us power, or take it from us, and advises how we can use power for good.
