Harvey Weinstein was powerful, but the new power model took him out in the #MeToo tsunami, as co-authors Jeremy Heimans and Henry Timms explain during this Talks at Google episode about their book, New Power. They cite Airbnb, which merged new and old power modes to overcome a pending California regulation by hiring lobbyists and deploying hosts as door-to-door advocates. New power is decentralized, but it requires some structural elements of the old power model to retain vigor. This fast-moving video conversation will enlighten leaders who are trying to unravel the dynamics of the new power paradigm.
