Influencer : The Power to Change Anything by Ron McMillan, David Maxfield, Kerry Patterson, Al Switzler, Joseph Grenny
3.0
Influencer seems like a decent overview of broad strategies for influence. I didn't love it, though. It felt too broad to be helpful, and the stories were too pat to feel realistic. Partly I was annoyed that it occasionally felt like an advertisement for [b:Crucial Conversations: Tools for Talking When Stakes are High|15014|Crucial Conversations Tools for Talking When Stakes are High|Kerry Patterson|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1290394180s/15014.jpg|2051713] (which admittedly is a good book).
The overview of how to build an influence strategy is probably true, but given how broad the examples were, would probably require a ton of effort to tailor for your individual influence needs.
In the end, I think this was academically useful, but I probably wouldn't recommend it to anyone who had immediate influence needs.
