How to hear yes more often – Published 2024
Harnessing the power of influence and Ethical Persuasion in business
Next to the Seminole text written by Dr Robert Cialdini, ‘Influence – the psychology of persuasion’, there is no need to re-teach the science. The authors of How to Hear Yes More Often therefore created a complementary text that helps readers with the practical application of persuasion science.
Each author provides the Reader with a different viewpoint on the use of behavioural science and ethical influence.
Patrick gives us a detailed analysis of the influence challenge that saw him go from being laughed at by retailers to a market leader in 18 months, while cementing his passion for Ethical Persuasion.
Leopold Ajami elaborates on the applications of influence in speaking and presentation. John Doorbar shares the insights that he usually teaches to introverted CEOs. Martin John looks at persuasion not from a sales perspective, but from a procurement angle.
How to Hear Yes More Often is an easy-to-read book with valuable insights to supplement your practical application of persuasion science. If you don’t own the book ‘Influence’ yet, then purchase it together with how to hear yes more often.
