"A bully is the worst kind of leader." So says Michael Kiff, in his introduction to "The Art of Influencing Others", which brims with wise maxims distilled from the annals of literature on power and influence.Amongst the techniques discussed by Kiff in this short work are active listening, establishing rapport and body language. These will all be familiar to readers of such experts on the subtleties of human psychology and behaviour as Robert Greene, Robert Cialdini and Joe Navarro, but here the arcane wisdom is concentrated in the interest of those who prefer not to trawl through verbiage.Worth it at the price.
