Curious Minds at Work

CM 286: Chris Lipp on Stepping into Your Personal Power


Listen Later

Most advice on power is about why we need it or how we can get it. And it's typically focused on things outside us, like titles or promotions.
While these external markers are important, they can leave us empty inside. 
Advice that focuses solely on external power leaves out how to build and maintain the crucial internal power we need.  That’s why Chris Lipp decided to mine the research on personal power and, ultimately, to write a book on it. In this interview we talk about his latest book, The Science of Personal Power: How to Build Confidence, Create Success, and Obtain Freedom. 
Chris’s book gives us an opportunity to build the inner foundation for success, so we can match it with external achievements. If you're looking for a book with concrete ways to center and inspire you in your work - and in your life - you'll find it here.
