Laws of Power #12
This week, the laws of power bring us a law about honesty and when to use it with your adversaries. More after the jump.
Laws of Power #11
This week, I talk about making people dependent on you and the freedom that brings when you are the provider. More after the jump.
Laws of Power #10
This week’s law of power may be a controversial one and it is one that I struggle with because I am the type of person who likes to care for people. The way that I apply it in my life and work is to think about what lifeguards are trained to do.
Laws of Power #9
This week, I talk about something that comes up everywhere: office politics. If you work in an office, it will happen to you. More after the jump.
Laws of Power #8
This week, we talk about making people come to you and all of the power that gives you in a situation.
Laws of Power #7
The laws of power bring us the power of delegation this week, but from a different angle.
Laws of Power #6

Laws of Power #5
This week, as promised, I talk about reputation and how important it is.
Laws of Power #4
A little late with this one, but better late than never. This week I talk about the value of keeping your mouth shut.
Laws of Power #3
This week’s laws of power talks about concealing your intentions until the last possible second so as to confuse others (typically an enemy or competitor) of your real goal. One of my business life lessons was learned the hard way through this law. Being on the receiving end is a very lasting reminder.
