It Starts With A Gun Battle

In this August 2023 updated edition, the author sets the scene for what will surely be another best selling book with a gun battle story where he was caught right in the middle. It's this interesting event that highlights a logical but not so obvious idea - the manner in which you successfully get people to do your bidding in one scenario will not work in all other scenarios.

Unfortunately most people are continually frustrated when they get push back and resistance and negative responses while trying to get their good ideas across. They use an approach which worked the last time they sought to get buy-in but for some reason it won't work now.

To get things done they've generally fallen back to the authority given to them by an organisation's structure, but this time they have none.

This book was written to help you address this challenge and more effectively influence change, specifically in situations where you do not have any formal authority and have a need to present your ideas to an audience.

The content of this book is extremely beneficial to anyone required to influence others.
