Publisher's summary

From the New York Times best-selling authors of Crucial Conversations.... Whether your goal is to change minds, change markets, or change the world - anything is possible for an influencer.

Everyone wants to be an influencer. We all want to learn how to help ourselves and others change behavior. And yet, in spite of the fact that we routinely attempt to do everything from lose weight to improve quality at work, few of us have more than one or two ideas about how to exert influence. For the first time, Influencer brings together the breakthrough strategies of contemporary influence masters. By drawing from the skills of hundreds of successful influencers and combining them with five decades of the best social-science research, Influencer shares eight powerful principles for changing behaviors - principles almost anyone can apply to change almost anything.

The Influencer book is a must read

This book has content that is unlike anything I have ever read! It will change the way you approach everything in your life where you want a solid result. Just buy it and listen/ read it. I haven't finished it yet, or this write up would be stronger, and more convincing!

Enjoyed every minute

I really like it when, after I've finished a book, I'm inspired. Much of the material may come across as common sense but I found the value to be in the proposed structure to myriad tools of influence.

The narrator is very good however, for me, his delivery was unintentionally humorous at times. Especially when relating the story of the chocoholic who can't resist the temptations of the chocolate brick. His simultaneously deadpan and melodramatic reading of that passage had me chuckling.

Inspirational and eye opening

Where does Influencer rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Great set of stories about how this being an Influencer thing works. Not much more to say about it. Worth the read. Happy to have had it on audible so I can listen to it in no additional time while I walking or commuting.

Good interesting read with practical advise

Just like all the audiobooks I listen and all the books I read. You've got to listen many times over and over to grasp all the valuable info. I love the fact they reference with facts all the tools they provide. Great read/listen
