The Steve Jobs Guide To Manipulating People And Getting What You Want
Jobs faced many obstacles to get Apple, and later Pixar, off the ground. But Jobs had a unique way of crafting his own reality, a "distortion field" that could persuade people that his personal beliefs were actually facts, which is how he pushed his companies forward.
And he also used a blend of manipulative tactics to ensure his victories, particularly in boardroom meetings with some of the most powerful company executives in the world.
Many consider Jobs a genius, but there's no reason we could all learn a thing or two from his tactics.
Here, we teach you how to get what you want - whether that's in your career, or in your life in general - by using examples from Jobs' life. Most of these stories were taken from Walter Isaacson's biography of Steve Jobs, which you can buy here.
