About this course

In his million-copy bestseller, 'Influence: The Psychology of Persuasion,' Dr Robert Cialdini describes six powerful insights into human psychology:

  1. Liking
  2. Scarcity
  3. Social Proof
  4. Authority
  5. Reciprocity
  6. Commitment & Consistency


This short course, and eBook, explain how to apply these to your writing and speaking to get your way more often at work. The principles apply equally as well to sales as to influencing stakeholders. 

We call it 'Incognito Influence' because, when you use the principles, people you use them on often don't consciously process the situation; they tend to go on 'autopilot.' This tendency can consistently give you fast, effective results. 

But it also means you have to be ethical when using them. If it's not win-win (win for you, win for them), don't do it! You'll regret it. 

Use it or lose it

To really absorb these principles, after learning about each one, think how you could apply the principle to your regular 'influence' situations at home or work. 

Enjoy!
