If you haven't read 'The Power of Strategic Influence' by Gary C Laney - an influential business leader, CEO, and bestselling author, then you're truly missing out. From the first page, Gary's book got me hooked with its storytelling style. The first chapter breaks down useful elements to consider, such as Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs. It also provides practical recommendations for identifying different influencers and advises how to proceed. I also appreciated the book's simple, clear style, along with references to modern influencers - from Kylie Jenner to Mary Barra. This book is a helpful guide for building relationships that will help you succeed in life. Do yourself a favour. Grab that book from Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and other outlets. Kudos Gary for releasing such a practical resource to help people harness the power of forming strategic alliances to succeed in life."

“The Power of Strategic Influence: 10 Success Factors of Highly Influential Leaders” has been released worldwide.

SUCCESS MASTERS LLC

Shark Tank's Kevin Harrington Praises Gary C. Laney's New Book, "The Power of Strategic Influence."

Kevin Harrington, Original Shark from ABC’s Shark Tank and Bestselling Author, praises the new book by Gary C. Laney.

Gary Laney is an accomplished executive and entrepreneur. In his book, The Power of Strategic Influence, Gary breaks down how to build influence, maximize it, and share it … to achieve true success in life.

All of us start at the bottom, on the lowest rung of the ladder, but none of us want to stay there. The trick is figuring out how to take that next step. But there’s more to it than that. You have to take the next step in the right direction. Now imagine how much easier that would be and how much more confident you would be if you had your own personal coach directing you. You don’t have to imagine. You’re holding it in your hands.

You can read Gary’s bio for yourself and see that he knows what he is talking about. He has used everything he outlines in this book to develop and leverage his own sphere of influence. Not only that, but he also warns you about outdated methods, time-wasters, and energy-stealers so you can focus on actions you can take starting today to deliver results.

The Power of Strategic Influence is a playbook for resourcefully rising to the top by purposefully utilizing tactics such as understanding the marketplace, specializing in your field, differentiating yourself, achieving competitive leadership competencies, and how to make strategic, game-changing and making valuable connections.

Gary doesn’t just teach you how to build your sphere of influence and how to seize the opportunities that it brings, he encourages you to give back at every step on your journey. Each one of the influencers he enlists for insight also models that for you.

If your goal is to rise to the top in your company or industry, read The Power of Influence by Gary Laney and learn from his powerful insight. Take it from a Shark…you’ll be glad you did.
