1104: Exploring the Timeless Principles of Influence through a Christian Lens with Brian Ahearn

And that's the principle of unity, gets us even closer to love. Another interesting thing about unity is we don't always even have to like the person. But if we feel that deep sense of shared identity or bond, we are much more likely to do something to try to help that individual. In large part our success and happiness rests on getting people to say yes to us. But I hope people will see that we can go to a deeper level, a level that does right by people and allows us to feel really good about ourselves in the midst of that as well.

That's Brian Ahern. He is the chief Influence officer at Influence People, an international trainer and consultant, Brian specializes in applying the science of influence in everyday situations. His new book, Influenced from Above, where Faith and Influence Meet, shares how faith and psychology come together to transform your leadership. So you'll learn one, how modern psychology and the Bible support each other, two, how to build instant rapport with anyone, and three, the master key to cementing your authority.
