Editorial Review:

Product Description:
"Over these many years of watching Michael devour books on leadership, ask probing questions of all manner of leaders, and write his daily insights, I see now where it has all led--to a magnificent new book on leadership. If you are passionate about becoming a more effective leader, do yourself a favor and read Power and Persuasion."--Steve Leveen, CEO and Cofounder, Levenger

"Michael Masterson's new book emphasizes vision and effective communication, and, although unconventional at time, his ideas about leadership are unassailable and will be more widely employed. I have made it required reading for everyone at Frank McKinney & Company."--Frank McKinney, bestselling author of Frank McKinney's Maverick Approach to Real Estate Success and Make It BIG!

"I ghostwrote a book on leadership for which I personally interviewed 100 CEOs, many from big-name Fortune 500 companies and leading national brands. But I learned more about leadership by reading Michael Masterson's new book Power and Persuasion than I did from all my interviews with those 100 CEOs combined."--Bob Bly, author of more than 60 books and Director of the Center for Technical Communications

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - POWER OF PERSUASION
Fabulous...Outstanding... Michael Masterson is a master when it comes to leadership , mindset skills and holds valuable keys to your success formula.
A guru to the guru's, Michael provides substance and clarity within the "power of persuasion".
Clarity which during these eroded financial/political times one can truly "trust".
Don't take my word for it, read it for yourself and discover just how magnificent your life will change. A change you can count on and develop just like ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Step by step instructions
Well written book that focuses on real life examples and ways of persuading people to help you get what you want. Michael concentrates on what has really worked for him in life and gives you these things in an easy to follow format. Each chapter stands alone so you can take it and apply it in your life then move on to the next chapter and apply that.
Worth the read but if you really want to get the most out of what Michael is teaching you have to apply it.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Power and Persuasion - boring
I read the first 3 chapters in this book and was fairly disappointed. I was expecting fresher ideas and presentation. If I can't get at least one new worthwhile idea in the 1st 3 chapters then I loose interest. I also think the bullet-point format was bland and took up too much page space. I'm going to pick up the book again when I have nothing better to read.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Leapfrogging up the Corporate Ladder
I read Michael Masterson's EarlytoRise e-zine at least once a week, more when I have time. So I thought I had a pretty good idea of what to expect from Power & Persuasion. And it didn't disappoint. Without knowing a lot about Masterson's specific career path, I can guess that he's had a great number of successes in a number of different fields. I say that because the ideas and principles that he presents for persuading others seem to transend specific job situations, so I can only assume that ... Read More
