<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>From the bestselling authors of The Go-Giver, Go-Givers Sell More, and The Go-Giver Leader comes another compelling parable about the paradox of getting ahead by placing other people's interests first.</b> <p/><i>The Go-Giver Influencer</i> is a story about two young, ambitious businesspeople: Gillian Waters, the chief buyer for Smith & Banks, a midsized company that operates a national chain of pet accessory stores; and Jackson Hill, the founder of Angels Clothed in Fur, a small but growing manufacturer of all-natural pet foods. <p/>Each has something the other wants. To Jackson, Smith & Banks represents the possibility of reaching more animals with his products--if he can negotiate terms and conditions that will protect his company's integrity. To Gillian, Angels Clothed in Fur could give her company a distinctive, uniquely high-quality line that will help them stand out from their competitors--if Angels Clothed in Fur can be persuaded to give them an exclusive. <p/>At first, the negotiations are adversarial and frustrating. Then, coincidentally, Gillian and Jackson each encounter a mysterious yet kindly mentor. Over the next week, while neither one realizes the other is doing the same, both Gillian and Jackson learn the heart of both mentors' philosophies: The Five Secrets of Genuine Influence. <p/>The story ends in a way that surprises everyone--and with lessons we can all apply in our efforts to resolve conflicts and influence others.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"This may be the most important Go-Giver book yet--and in today's polarized world, it could not be more timely."<br>--Marshall Goldsmith, author of <i>What Got You Here Won't Get You There</i> <p/>"<i>The Go-Giver Influencer </i>is a brilliant and insightful book that teaches us how to see things from the other person's point of view and add value to their life while honoring our own.

In an age where climbers are clamoring to become influencers, this book sums up what that really means and how to (and how <i>not</i> to) achieve it. Here are just three gems on replay in my head and heart right now: (1) master your emotions, don't let your feelings fool or control you; (2) manipulation is never the way; (3) genuine influence will come when you are motivated not by gaining influence yourself but by <i>others'</i> needs and want.
