Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights:#1 You are a born manipulator. You have been manipulating people since you took your first breath. You are constantly manipulating others to get your own way, and you will continue to do so to the end.#2 Manipulation is not to be confused with persuasion, which is openly influencing someone for a credible reason. It is typically a covert operation, in which you exploit the ignorance of a defenseless, unsuspecting victim.#3 When people’s interests are in play, every interaction becomes a game of communicative chess.
