The Power to Shape Outcomes Without Authority
In a world where raw power often trumps genuine influence, Tsun-yan Hsieh's "Positive Influence" offers something revolutionary. After studying influence across 33 industries and 30 countries for nearly five decades, Hsieh discovered universal principles that work whether you're a CEO or a new graduate. What makes positive influence different from manipulation? It creates outcomes beneficial to everyone involved, not just the influencer. Think about the last time you needed to persuade someone. Did you focus solely on getting what you wanted, or did you consider how the outcome might benefit them too? Positive influence (or "+influence") is "mobilizing oneself and others to positively impact an interaction without using raw power, producing outcomes beneficial to all stakeholders." Unlike persuasion, which seeks buy-in to a predetermined position, +influence pursues movement toward mutually beneficial outcomes. Consider Marie Cheong's story: Despite receiving an offer with double her salary from a tech giant, she declined after realizing it wouldn't fulfill her desire to "build something great for the world." This decision brought her "incredible freedom" and eventually led to co-launching Southeast Asia's first climate tech venture fund. Her choice illustrates how positive influence begins with influencing ourselves toward authentic decisions.
