Today I had the pleasure of speaking with the professional speaker and coach, founder of Andywallaceconsulting.com, Andy Wallace. Andy believes that there is a dark side of power that most people don’t know about. He has interviewed over 250 perpetrators of power-based crimes, and help their victims put their lives together. He now teaches what power is and how it can bring growth, productivity, and health, if you know how to use it properly.. Andy teaches leaders to use power well to inspire and influence people like you.
Let’s dive into Andy’s story to have a deeper understanding of what power is and how to use it well to benefit as a leader both in your work or in your family life
