In episode 2.5, Scott and Vince continue their power conversation from episode 2.3. Here, they really focus on the power and importance of influence and persuasion. Personal and professional power are tools that help drive influence and persuasion. From the importance of being genuine or authentic to believing and living your core values, to recognizing people for who they are versus what they are, will fuel your personal power and put you in an incredible position to influence in a positive manner.
They also discuss negative approaches such as scarcity tactics and the pitfalls that come with using fear as a part of your personal power.
