The bestselling author and star of ABC's Shark Tank reveals how to
master the three prongs of influence: reputation, negotiation, and
relationships.
Have you ever wanted to make a big change in your life but weren't sure
where to start? In Powershift, Daymond John shares the answer. To take
control of your destiny and drive the change you want to see, you need
to lay the groundwork so you're prepared to seize every opportunity that
comes your way. And that means mastering
- Influence--make an impression: Develop a reputation that
highlights what you stand for.
- Negotiation--make a deal: Hone a win-win negotiating style.
- Relationships--make a connection last: Nurture those connections
you make along the way.
Through never-before-told stories from his life and career, Daymond
shares the lessons that got him to where he is today: from how he remade
his public image as he transitioned from clothing mogul to television
personality, to how he mastered the negotiation strategies that
determine whether deals are won or lost "in the tank," to his secrets
for building long-lasting--and profitable--relationships with founders
and brands.
Throughout the book, some of the world's most successful personalities
reveal how they shifted their power in meaningful ways:
Kris Jenner on determining your value: "You don't have to go ask
somebody else for permission. You have the power to be able to stick to
your guns and demand your worth."
Mark Cuban on finding and understanding your why: "Time is the one
asset we don't own, we can't buy, and we can never get back."
Pitbull on tapping into your inner power: "A lot of people feel that
to be powerful is to exude strength. I think it's the total opposite. To
be powerful is to be powerless. It's when you give everybody what you
got."
Whether you're an innovator working to turn your big idea into a
reality, a professional looking to land a major promotion, or a busy
parent trying to find more time to focus on what's really important to
you, Daymond shows you how to shift your power and energy towards
positive change.
