8. Soft Power at your work place

from Soft Power Project · host Sherry Fang

Hello my dears, Have you ever felt stuck at work—like no amount of expert advice could make you feel truly accomplished? I’ve been there. I was often the one giving advice to others, yet somehow those same tips didn’t seem to work for me. Why? Because no matter how good you are at “communicating,” “negotiating,” or “presenting,” if you’re not in a workplace that values your contributions, those skills alone won’t bring you happiness. This realization became the driving force behind this podcast. It’s why I believe so deeply in the power of soft power. Our soft power allows us to be more curious, more honest, and to set clear boundaries. It helps us align our intentions and values internally—creating a healthy foundation for both our work and our mental well-being. How do you use soft power at work? I’d love to hear your thoughts.

Barnum.Some laws teach the need for prudence (“Law 1: Never Outshine the Master”), others teach the value of confidence (“Law 28: Enter Action with Boldness”), and many recommend absolute self-preservation (“Law 15: Crush Your Enemy Totally”).
