Summary

Escape the grip of drama and take control of your life.

The Power of TED* (*The Empowerment Dynamic) is a fable on self-leadership, because how you lead your own life has everything to do with how you lead in other areas. It is a tool for both individuals and organizations who want to create more effective communication and relationships. Learning how to transform everyday drama and opt for more growth-oriented solutions, is the priceless gift it teaches.

As you walk with David, the main character, he shares how he is feeling victimized by life. Through serendipity he meets some wise guides, Ted and Sophia, who show David how he can move from feeling like a victim to being a creator of his own life.

The Power of TED* offers a powerful alternative to the Karpman Drama Triangle with its roles of victim, persecutor, and rescuer. The Empowerment Dynamic (TED) provides the antidote roles of creator, challenger, and coach - and a more positive approach to life's challenges.

The teaching story provides a guide for learning and growing through the challenges we all face in our lives. Its message resonates with everyone who, at some time in their lives, feel victimized by their situation.

Having helped thousands of people and scores of organizations over the past decade, The Power of TED* (*The Empowerment Dynamic) is being published in this 10th Anniversary Edition to convey a very timely message of hope that all of life, whether at home or work, can be transformed to create satisfying and fulfilling relationships.

Its message is needed now more than ever.

The 10th Anniversary Edition retains the powerful leadership story and adds three new sections:

1. A new Foreword by Lisa Lahey, Ed D, Harvard Graduate School of Education

2. New Study Questions for the Journey

3. A new Preface by the Author

Regret wasting a credit on this American pscychobabble

Nonsensical psycho-babble, no evidence base , wish I’d not wasted a credit on this. Now I have to waste more words writing a review in order to submit

Brilliant! I needed to hear this audiobook.

I was recently introduced to the Drama Triangle by my therapist, and I am so glad that I found this book in relation. I absolutely loved it,despite the realisation that I am very much playing the roles of victim,rescuer, and persecutor. I now understand what and why I've been doing what i do, and now have a clear direction to adapt my ways.

Simple communication of complex ideas!

I thank David for his vision of writing The Empowerment Dynamic, in such an interesting way.

Outstanding!

I came upon this book when going through a crisis. I couldn't make sense of what was happening to me nor my reaction to it. This book hit the nail on the head and helped me to face the situation head on. Highly recommend for everyone.

Must-read for everyone.

The methods described in this book are truly powerful and intuitive to learn. They can help you to catch yourself when drifting into the dark side of life and explain simple steps of how to pull yourself out of your misery. Individualism is the way to go. Enjoy!

Easy to listen, good, clear content.

Extremely useful tools and models for self knowledge and analysis of the structure of conflict, both for inner conflict and crisis situations. Well read, although I would generally prefer a slower pace.
