Description
Linda Kohanov explores the power of nonverbal communication and leadership in her groundbreaking book. Drawing on insights from horse behavior and cultural innovators, she reveals how "nonpredatory power" can be used to develop assertiveness, foster creativity, and deal with conflict. Kohanov profiles influential figures who employed extraordinary nonverbal skills to shape history, and adapts these lessons into twelve guiding principles that can be applied in work and personal life. By debunking traditional notions of dominance hierarchies, she demonstrates the power of consensual leadership and fluid governing roles. This book offers a fresh perspective on how to thrive in our communities, careers, families, and friendships by embracing "horse sense" for everyone.
