“The room already chose its king before you raised your hand.”- Jeffrey Pfeffer
The Story Behind This Song
Jeffrey Pfeffer's Stanford course on power is one of the most popular and controversial in the university's history. His first-day-of-class move — walking in at five-foot-two and commanding the room with just his name — became legendary. The bridge explores the price of power: a dean who can't leave work while his wife is dying, because every hour belongs to someone else's ask.
