He delves into easy and ethical ways in which we can change minds and influence a yes if we put in the effort, because your next big opportunity could hinge on a single word (or even letter).

Legendary Quotes:

“Tiny changes can make a big difference. And most of the time we don't even know what those things are.” – Howie Chan

“ I'm not talking about manipulation here. I am talking about influence with ethics, which is you're not hiding anything, you're not being untruthful in anything, but you are providing information in a way that's easier to digest, easier for people to take action.” – Howie Chan

“ These tips don't work every single time. Don't use them all the time. Context is infinitely important. So, know your audience, know the context.” – Howie Chan
