Power is fundamental in our lives-we express it in every conversation, relationship, and choice we make. All too often, we equate force and domination with power, while gentleness and compassion are considered "soft" or "weak." The destructive nature of this skewed perspective has never been more obvious, yet there is reason to hope. With Gentle Power, Dr. Emilia Elisabet Lahti shares an illuminating guide to an emerging shift in the way we define true strength-an approach that balances resolve with reason, grit with compassion, and personal success with service to the collective good. Lahti uses the concept of sisu, a central philosophy native to Finland, as the foundation for her investigation of gentle power. "At its best," she says, "sisu is a harmonious approach to life itself, specifically in how we make decisions, relate to one another, and navigate times of crisis and peace." Drawing from sisu-as well as aikido, Taoism, neuroscience, systems intelligence, and more-she shares an evidence-based approach to help you transform the way you manifest power.
