15 Science of Persuasion The Principle ofThe Application Liking People like those who like them Uncover real similarities and offer genuine praise Reciprocity People repay in kind (good and bad) Give what you want to receive (e.g., help, info, materials) Social Proof People follow the lead of similar others Leverage peer power whenever it is available Consistency People align their behavior with their commitments Make their commitments active, public and voluntary Authority People defer to credible experts Expose your expertise; don’t assume it is self-evident Scarcity People want more of what they can have less of Highlight unique benefits and exclusive information or access

16 Art of Persuasion 1. Establish credibility through your expertise, performance and relationship history 2. Frame goals on common ground 3. Reinforce your position with vivid stories and visuals 4. Connect to others’ emotions, motivations and needs

17 When the Direct Approach Fails Use indirect influence [attempts planned as intentional by the leader but viewed as unintentional by the target person] Talk less, listen more Highlight similarities (make them like you) Make them laugh (reduce fear and anxiety) Reduce uncertainties Do a favor – even a small one
