About Power Over Force
Teaching men and leaders how to trade force for real power.
Garth Haslem is the author of Power Over Force and the founder of Manalizing, a men’s movement built on brotherhood, authenticity, and vulnerability.
As a structural engineer, Garth has spent his career studying load, stress, failure, and what allows systems to hold.
Power Over Force brings that same lens to men’s lives — showing why force breaks things down, and why real power builds strength, stability, and connection.
Force pushes, pressures, dominates, manipulates, and demands.
This work helps men, leaders, fathers, husbands, teams, and organizations recognize where force is damaging trust – and how to replace control, anger stress and manipulation with true leadership.
Power steadies, protects, leads, connects, and builds.
Followers of true leaderswill follow true leaders into battle, even if they know it may cost them their lives. Learn how to replace pretension with greatness, and anger with real authority.
