This training book developed using Cialdini’s principles turns theoretical knowledge into practical skills: eight lessons with assignments will help you not only become a leader, but also learn to recognize manipulation, giving you the confidence to say "no." If your goal is to learn the art of persuasion and influence over others, and to resist manipulation, start acting! Without practical application, theory rarely brings benefits: important knowledge, remaining only in your head, doesn’t become a skill. That’s why Douglas Moss created an influence training program based on the work of social psychologist Robert Cialdini. This course is for those looking for answers to questions such as: • How to become a leader while staying independent? • How to avoid manipulation and recognize it? • How to build confidence in communication and learn to refuse? • How to get your requests accepted without long persuading? Eight lessons with exercises aimed at developing persuasiveness and protecting yourself from manipulation will help you master influence techniques and apply them in life. Study the theory and apply it right away—this will allow you to make agreements successfully, communicate confidently, and build trusting relationships. With this book, you’ll learn how to: · recognize manipulation; · protect yourself from harmful influence; · master methods of influence and persuasion; · interact confidently with others.
