Descripción del artículo del vendedor

"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 Yes To 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.

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.…
