Power and influence aren't qualities some people are born with — they are skills you can learn, develop, and master. In How to Gain Power & Influence With People, world-renowned speaker and communication expert Dr. Tony Alessandra reveals the specific behaviors and strategies that set genuinely influential people apart from everyone else.

Whether you want to advance your career, close more sales, lead a team, or simply get more of what you want from your personal relationships, the ability to connect with people and persuade them to your point of view is your most valuable skill. Dr. Alessandra's approach is built on authenticity, adaptability, and respect — not manipulation — so you get results that last.

  • The four behavioral styles and how to adapt your approach to each
  • How to build instant rapport and trust with anyone you meet
  • Powerful listening techniques that make people feel genuinely understood
  • The Platinum Rule: how to treat others the way they want to be treated
  • Proven techniques for winning cooperation in business and personal life

Dr. Alessandra draws on decades of research, thousands of interviews, and his own proven track record in business to give you a practical, immediately applicable system for gaining the power and influence that opens doors.
