Rating:  Summary: The Influence Edge Review: Excellent book! Easy to read, easy to understand, just makes sense. I especially liked the way it left space for me to fill in my own real situation. So it goes beyond the theoretical to the very practical. I use the steps as outlined in the book whenever I'm going to meet with someone who I am trying to influence. While I may not always get 100% of what I want, I have been much more successful since reading the book. And I'm able to see things from the other person's point of view much better that I did before. I highly recommend this book to anyone who has to influence and/or negotiate with another human being, be it for business or personal reasons.

Rating:  Summary: Learn When to Push and When to Pull Review: This is a tremendously helpful and eminently practical book. I was especially impressed by the concept of "push-pull energy", the idea that there are two very different ways of influencing people and that you need to know when and how to use each one, or when to combine them. (Basically, push energy is assertive and pull energy is inclusive, i.e. pulling people in). It's a subtle concept but the exercises throughout the book show you how to use it to design a very sophisticated and effective influence strategy.
