33 Trust AND Influence 33

34 Trust AND Influence 34

35 What We Think About How We Think RATIONAL, DEDUCTIVE, LOGICAL Facts Truth Logic Trust AND Influence 37

36 Are Ordinary People Rational? Trust AND Influence 38

37 Are Judges Rational? Does it matter what judge hears your case? Does it matter how the judge is feeling today? Trust AND Influence 39

38 Are Professionals Rational? How much do US pharmaceutical companies spend on medical education? Doctors: They can t buy me with laser pointers and monogrammed pencils. Trust AND Influence 40

39 Cialdini on Influence The number one factor of influence: Reciprocity Trust AND Influence 41

40 The Doctor s Story A pain in my left shoulder If you listen to me, I will listen to you If you don t listen to me, I will not listen to you Trust AND Influence 42

41 The most pervasive and hardest sales problem? Premature solutions. The mistaken belief that the sooner they can begin solving the problem, the more effective they will be. Trust AND Influence 43

42 Suicide Hot Lines Trust AND Influence 44

43 Thomas Friedman on Listening Trust AND Influence 45

44 Thomas Friedman on Listening People often ask me how I, an American Jew, have been able to operate in the Arab/Muslim world for 20 years, and my answer to them is always the same. The secret is to be a good listener. It has never failed me Indeed, the most important part of listening is that it is a sign of respect. It's not just what you hear by listening that is important. It is what you say by listening that is important... Trust AND Influence 46

45 To be Clear: 1. Influence is non-rational 2. It works through reciprocity 3. Reciprocity in business happens in conversations 4. Listening (yours) drives influence. Trust AND Influence 47
