Through engaging anecdotes and practical examples, he empowers readers to recognize and ethically apply these techniques in their personal and professional interactions. Whether you’re looking to enhance your negotiation skills or simply understand the forces at play in your own choices, “Influence” is an essential guide to mastering the art of persuasion.
