Influence and Persuasion are powerful tools that we can and should use while managing our teams. While these topics may make some uncomfortable, the tools of persuasion are natural within human psychology and are taking place even if we are unaware of them.

As a Psychological Warfare profession, I was well-trained in using these tools and employed them throughout PSYOP campaigns.

Now as a leader of teams, I see them through a different framework and have taken the lessons to be the best leader possible.

In this series, we’ll be exploring the work of Robert Cialdini in his seminal work “Influence: The Psychology of Persuasion”.

Discover these incredible tools and how you can use them while leading your team.

That’s where an Operator can really help you.

I noticed that many are being recommended to look for fractional COOs or fractional Integrators for their businesses.

What does it mean to be truly committed to an outcome? To fully dedicate yourself to the end result? It’s far too easy to swing around to whatever shiny objects we come across rather than follow through on our plans.
