Lifelong Learning Faculty Seminars: Additional Reading

 

February 17, 2005
"The Psychology of Power"
Deborah Gruenfeld, Professor of Organizational Behavior; Co-director of the Center for Leadership Development and Research

 

This seminar highlights seven years of Professor Gruenfeld's research into the "psychology of power". She will show that the psychology of power affects most people in at least some situations and that we are all capable of exhibiting both the positive and the negative consequences of power.
