Tension-the right kind, at the right time, not too much, not too little-is the most powerful influencer in whether things get done. Ignore it, and it can imperil your best intentions. Master it, and you have unlocked one of the most significant but misunderstood elements of human endeavor.

This book is intended to unlock the mystery of this overlooked thing called "productive tension" and open up a new understanding and mastery of how it can transform your every interaction, conversation, initiative and decision in your personal and business life.

The author will explain the drivers of tension - perceived challenge and perceived ability - and the role those two factors play in the level of tension we or others experience: Apathy, Power, or Stress.

Tension has been there all along. It's time to make it something that works for you and the people you lead.
