I will pay for the following article Leadership Management in the Video Reinventing the Technology of Human Accomplishment. The work is to be 1 page with three to five sources, with in-text citations and a reference page.

The video, How to Win Power and Influence People features Jeffrey Pfeffer giving loads of wise words on how managers can wield power over their staff and increase the production and profitability of their organizations. Jeffrey’s pronouncement that power is the most precious resource for a manager is indeed a new viewpoint to those who believe in democratic management.

A close overview of these videos together with an Interview with David Ulrich gives guidelines that can transform the operations of many organizations. As Garry points out, innovation, resilience, inspiration, and accountability are core principles that every manager determined to succeed must possess. A manager capable of exercising profound expertise and emotional commitment will certainly make a landmark impact on an organization. Coupling these abilities with a rare capacity to win people’s affection and favor makes such a manager an idol and a treasure to the company he runs.

As a manager in a Convenience Store, putting all these cherished secrets of success into practice will tremendously improve the operations of my department. With the power to influence the staff under me, I will have a sizeable staff that is enthusiastic to carry out errands in the store without grumbling. Being an emotionally attached manager to the operations of the store will not only make me an efficient manager but will encourage and motivate the junior staff to perform to the same standards of excellence.
