Abstract

We want to change how people see power: not just as a blunt tool reserved for the privileged few, or as a dirty business that one should stay away from, but as energy for everyone to harness to make our life, work, and society better. We hope that our democratizing vision of power will help people of all kinds understand and gain power to do work they’re proud of and become more aware and engaged citizens.

Keywords

Power Relationships; Power and Influence; Change; Society
