Many modern leaders believe that authority based on power is the main tool for achieving goals. When employees fail to complete tasks, fall behind schedule, or fail a project, these leaders tend to be more in control, tougher, and more demanding. However, the abuse of power can lead to employee alienation, demotivation and ultimately poor performance.

Joslyn Davis, a 25-year corporate training consultant, has developed and successfully applies the concept of "soft influence". It is based on the principles of spiritual teachings and philosophical schools that have come down to us in the texts and sayings of Buddha, Confucius, Rumi, Gandhi and other Eastern sages. Davis backs up these principles with current leadership research, influencer opinion, and his own experience. Whatever your position in the corporate world, this book will help you develop flexibility and bring people together to achieve business goals without coercion.
