Oprah Winfrey and Sarah Palin: Women using the power of influence? | What Women Want Buzz

Al Capone Had It; Oprah Winfrey, Sarah Palin Showed the World They Got It. Now All Women Should Capitalize On It Says Influence Expert

The same thing that worked for Al Capone lies at the heart of what Oprah Winfrey and Sarah Palin are doing for each other, says psychologist and executive coach Dr. Karen Keller, CEO of Karen Keller International, Inc., a firm that advises women on the behavioral art and science of using influence to get more of what they really want in life.

“The bottom line,” says Keller, “is getting that it’s child’s play to think the only reason Oprah interviewed Palin was to boost ratings and that Palin agreed just to sell more books. These women used the power of influence — exactly what men use to get ahead in life. Women are taught that influence is manipulation instead of the truth. Influence is knowing exactly what you want with crystal clarity and then taking specific action to get it.”

To help women capitalize on the Winfrey-Palin meeting as more than entertainment (or political fodder for journalists) and use it as an education to enhance their lives in a tangible way, Keller has posted a free Influence It! 6-Step Checklist at http://karen-keller.com/InfluenceIt.pdf that helps any woman effectively think through and make a power decision every time.

Keller reveals the one life experience inherent to women that makes them feel like they need permission to excel, and explains the methods and benefits of influence in her upcoming book: “Stepping Stones for Success,” an anthology with Deepak Chopra, Jack Canfield and Denis Waitley.
