Saying less

And that is how you assert power!

Power is in many ways a game of appearances, and when you say less than necessary, you inevitably appear greater and more powerful than you are.

This principle of strategic communication is a valuable tool in navigating the complex landscape of power dynamics.

The ability to control what we reveal and when we do so can significantly impact how others perceive our influence and capabilities.
