Dr. Zeiss has outlined the Nine Essential Laws that demonstrate how to be a person who is respected, admired, and sought after. The principles taught by Dr. Zeiss in his book Becoming Influential, are the tools that are embraced and put into action by some of our nations most successful people. This book is a breakthrough for anyone who is committed to becoming a person of influence and accomplishment.
A short refresher course or excellent leadership starter book. "Nine Laws" covers specific characteristics essential to success in your chosen field. Certainly not an in-depth study but valuable as a guide to areas you will need to practice to become influential.
A solid 'starter' book for someone who is most interested in becoming, or advancing further, into lifelong learning (liber education) Even in my case, having been in liber for nearly five years, there's much to learn from a short book such as this one. Mr. Zeiss has much to teach us all, as his pedigree / authorship comes from sustained results in his field.
Important nuggets that will lead you to success in any field. Probably would be a good idea to write them down and keep in my wallet to look over on a daily basis and see how I'm improving in the areas. Would highly recommend this to anyone leading in some capacity to gain insight into who they need to develop into before developing others.
A good, quick review of key practices for business or relationships. Great reminders for established professionals or those just entering the work force. Can be applied to business partnerships as well although the influence leans toward advancement in the employer employee sector.
As part of the LIFE subscription I received a not yet released updated version of this book and it is GREAT! Wanted to buy a bunch of copies for my team at work, which is how I found it isn't yet available (early 2015). It is a quick read but power packed.
