Product Description
This powerful book urges readers to examine their relationships — with themselves, their families, their work and communities, their spirituality, and the environment — to determine which of two models dictates their behavior, and then shows how they can improve. The dominator model is based on fear; the partnership model on respect. With practical suggestions for breaking free of the dominator model and moving into partnership, this book shows how respect in relationships can create a better life and a better world. Charts and tables are included.
Reader Reviews
This review is from: The Power of Partnership: The Seven Relationships that Will Change Your Life (Hardcover)
The Power of Partnership is a readable, "doable" book! It starts with the individual, moves to intimate relationships, relationships in organizations, workplaces, and communities. For all of life is relationships and until we learn how to live them out in a respectful (partnership) mode, we are stuck in the control (dominator) model. Eisler's guide at the end of each chapter tells us where to go from here: from thinking to next steps action and even more. Great for book study groups, peace and justice groups and even for an individual who is ready to take a leadership role, or even just one next step.
