Descripción del artículo del vendedor

Paperback. "Aprofound book that offers us a wise way to negotiate our toughest group, community, and societal challenges."-William Ury, New York Times-bestselling coauthor of Getting to YesTo try to solve their toughest problems, people either push for what they want at all costs or try to completely avoid conflict.Adam Kahane argues that these two seemingly contradictory approaches are each a reflection of two distinct, fundamental drives- power, the single-minded desire to achieve one's solitary purpose; and love, the drive towards unity. They are inextricable parts of human nature, so to achieve lasting change you have to able to work fluidly with both.Kahane delves deeply in the dual nature of power and love, exploring their complex and intricate interplay. With disarming honesty he relates how, through trial and error, he learned to balance between them, shifting from one to the other as though learning to walk-at first falling, then stumbling forward, and finally moving purposefully toward true, lasting reconciliation and progress.For the last twenty years Kahane has worked around the world on a variety of challenges- economic development, food security, health care, judicial reform, peacemaking, climate change. He has worked with diverse teams of leaders-executives and politicians, generals and guerillas, civil servants and trade unionists, community activists and United Nations officials, clergy and artists. He has seen, up close and personal, examples of inspiring progress and terrifying regress.Power and Lovereports what he has learned from these hard-won experiences."This exceptionally brave book pierces to the heart of how we must act in the world we so want to change."-Margaret J. Wheatley, bestselling author of Leadership and the New Science To create lasting change we have to learn to work fluidly with two distinct, fundamental drives that are in tension: power - the single-minded desire to achieve one's solitary purpose; and love - the drive towards unity. Using revealing stories from complex situations he has been involved in all over the world, Kahane reveals how to dynamically balance these two forces.
