Power Cues is a self-help book on understanding how to lead groups, persuade people and improve one’s personal impact. Summary of the Book Nick Morgan draws from his personal experience and research to explain how our behavior is influenced by unintended signals from our brain, which constantly drop cues to others. Anyone who wishes to become a leader must learn to pick up those cues from others, and respond to the nonverbal gestures, sounds and signals that will enable them to grasp the situation and control the moment. He teaches readers crucial skills about persuading and controlling groups. The book allows readers to understand that there is much that they can pick up from others without even talking, and helps them learn how they can influence them with these signals.
