Similarly, I don't believe any external entity can empower a human being. Individuals may get greater authority, but the level of power you have is an internal function. I believe individuals can increase their power over themselves through learning and growth. I believe people in positions of authority can become more effective in the exercise of that authority by following the principles outlined in Lee's book. Anyway, power is something I've had cause to think about a great deal in the last couple of years, and I'm still learning about it.
Old habits are hard to break, and they require a vigilant effort to overcome.
This was a book worth reading, but I think he's missed a great deal.
