Editorial Reviews
Lee E. Miller explores the fine art of influence. Here, he explains and elaborates upon what he terms the "U Perspective:' or seeing the world through the eyes of the people it is your business to influence. By doing so this book argues, you can harness the power of the values and belief systems of others to affect their behavior and arrive at mutually beneficial solutions. With what Miller calls the "3 Cs''-convince, collaborate and create- you will learn how to motivate people to help you achieve your ends. With Barbara Jackson, Miller shows you how to use the U Perspective effectively, an art essential to successful leadership. --Hispanic Trends Magazine
Written by experienced businessman and winner of the 2005 Seton Hall University Business School's Award for Teaching Excellence Lee E. Miller with consultant and entrepreneur Barbara Jackson, UP: Influence, Influence, Power and the U Perspective- The Art of Getting What You Want is a self-help guide to cultivating one's ability to influence people and building lasting agreements that advance mutual goals. Chapters discuss the "three C's" method of influencing others (Convince, Collaborate and Create), and the importance of understanding others' perspectives. "Since our beliefs and values are developed over time, on a subconscious level, most people simply assume that everyone sees the world the way they do. Even when we recognize that someone else sees a situation differently than we do, our first instinct usually is to try to persuade them to see things our way. The U Perspective takes the opposite approach. Its effectiveness is not rooted in the ability to convince others to change their views or adopt different values. Instead, its power comes from recognizing what others already believe and want and providing solutions based on that information." A top-notch guide, especially ideal for greasing social wheels in business circles but packed cover to cover with tips for more effective negotiation and team-building in personal circles as well. -- MIDWEST BOOK REVIEW
