Because like I say, you’ve been studying this for over two decades. No, thank you! And I have to admit I struggled a little bit to whittle the book down to those few lines of introduction because it really is absolutely packed with data, with studies, but also your personal anecdotes about power. Welcome Professor Gruenfeld from sunny California. Like actors, we all make choices about how we play our various power roles, and we can all become more successful and the best possible versions of ourselves in any role, on any stage, in this theatre of life. She says we all have more power than we realise, and what counts is not how much we have, but what we do with it, even if what we’re really doing is acting. A leading social psychologist, she has taught courses on power and leadership at Stanford Graduate School of Business for nearly 20 years. Now onto my guest for today, Professor Deborah Gruenfeld, author of Acting With Power. So keep an eye on /bookclub for invitations to this exclusive content. We’ll also be giving you a chance to put your own questions to each of our authors in live Q&As streamed regularly on the everywomanNetwork. In each podcast, I’ll be unravelling the details with our authors, exploring their themes and how they relate to women in the workplace and the wider world. I’m Rebecca Lewis and I’ll be your host for this series, introducing you to a fresh new bookshelf, packed with inspirational, thought-provoking and challenging new titles.
