Making Sense of Influence - The Psychology of Persuasion by Robert Cialdini

"Why do some people seem to effortlessly connect, persuade, and close more business, while others struggle to get a simple 'maybe'? Is it confidence? Charisma? Or is there something deeper at play?

The truth is, that most people approach communication, networking, and sales backward. They focus on what they want to say and what they want people to know, rather than understanding what drives people to say yes.

Today, I’m breaking down Robert Cialdini’s best-seller, Influence: The Psychology of Persuasion, one of the most powerful books ever written on the science of persuasion. And here’s the kicker: we’re diving into the new insights and applications from the book’s latest edition, including Cialdini’s newest, 7th principle of persuasion, which changes the game for how we influence and build trust.

If you want to increase sales, communicate more effectively, or simply understand what moves people, then stick around. This episode is about to change the way you see influence forever."

Important: I encourage you all to read these books or listen to them on Audible. My hope is that these short-form synopsis's will awaken you to some great books to put on your list.
