Engage, influence and persuade

It takes more than facts to shift someone else’s thinking. Often we are more influenced by factors such as rapport, dissonance, identification with the speaker and the emotional impact of an argument.

This insightful course presents a psychologically informed approach to influential communications and introduces a suite of tools and techniques to enhance your information and communicate your message.

With implications for campaigners, writers, speakers, marketing and a variety of communication and people-related roles, this course reveals how the research into neurological function and psychology of influence can be effectively applied in a range of situations.

Topics include:

Ethical persuasion
Purpose-driven communications
Understanding influence
The role of language
Authentic credibility
Engaging emotions
Factoring in audience perspectives
Surprise, images and analogy
Leveraging dissonance
