POPULARITY
What makes someone influential? What qualities do people see in compelling communicators and charismatic leaders? At a time when many people seem to be losing faith in institutions, what can leaders and organizations do to build trust and influence? On this episode of Achieve Great Things, we'll explore these questions with John Neffinger, who co-authored a book that's required reading at Harvard, Columbia and other business schools around the world. It's called "Compelling People." It's full of scientific insights and practical skills you can use to be a more influential leader or build a more influential organization.

Strength is something we typically associate with physicality and sometimes with mentality. However, strength comes in many forms and is vital for living an impossible life. The opposite is to be weak which is defined as yielding, failing, giving way, and being soft, feeble, and unhealthy. That type of living will get you nothing but pain and misery.In this episode, we give you a new definition of strength as well as a filter to apply to 5 key areas of life so you can get stronger and truly live up to all God made you to be.

John Shaw, director of the Paul Simon Public Policy Institute and host of Simoncast, becomes the focus of today's interview with Alee Quick.
William Grimshaw would leave church before the sermon to quickly invite anybody he could find in to hear the good news. How committed are we to inviting others to hear? How could someone's life change if we simply invited them?

“It is better to be feared than loved, if one cannot be both” Niccolo Macchiavelli, Italian philosopher.As a leader – which would you rather be? For all of us that question brings up different triggers, the desire to be liked, the fear of being seen as a push over. The pain of watching our plans dissolve because we were obviously not compelling enough – in that moment - to as my next guest would describe ‘bend the world to meet our will’.So what if I told you that you can be both. In fact, what if I told you that the most charismatic, influential and inspirational people in our world are always both. Everyone wants to know how to be more influential – it’s the entire focus of this podcast. But most of us don't really think we can have the kind of magnetism or charisma that we associate with someone like Bill Clinton or Oprah Winfrey unless it comes naturally. My next guest - John Neffinger believes that this isn't something we have to be born with, it's something we can learn. In his excellent book ‘Compelling People – co-authored with XX - They trace the path to influence through a balance of strength and warmth. Each seems simple, but only a few of us figure out the tricky task of projecting both at once. Drawing on cutting-edge social science research as well as their own work with Fortune 500 executives, Presidential candidates, TED speakers and Nobel Prize winners, Compelling People explains how we size each other up - and how we can learn to win the admiration, respect, and affection we desire. In this episode we unpack:Why words like chemistry and "charisma" are unhelpful. In short because they give us the impression that you either have it or you don’t – and they aren’t just tools that can be learnedThe two critical criteria when it comes to being a compelling force as a leader: strength and warmth. And why EVERY single one of our social judgements are based on those two aspects.Managing the dance – cold and warm – what comes first – and how the most charismatic, influential and inspirational people in our world are the ones that move continually and deliberately between those two places.His experience working with Hillary Clinton to prepare for her first debates with Donald Trump – you all remember that one. Knowing what happened, how would he prep her now?How to deal with interruptions – and yep you guessed it – why the Biden / Trump debate was an ideal case study on how to deal with vocal force.And why the job of President is not just to run the country. The job of President is to lead the country. Which means giving voice to people’s sentiments and telling the story of what comes next.If there’s one thing I’d love you to reflect on while you listen to this conversation – it’s the concept of ‘the tilt’. That your role as a leader – positional or not – is not necessarily to bend the world to meet your will – or to fold at the bendings of other people. It’s stay centered, get still, take a moment if you need to – and feel into what’s out of balance. Then, use the power of your will and intention to tilt back the scales.On that note, sit back, stride out – pull out the protein bar for those who are still on a NY detox – and soak up the lessons from the front lines of persuasion from the incredible – John Neffinger.

In 2012, I was living the 4-hour workweek dream, eating coconuts and mangos while running a lucrative internet business on the beach in Thailand. But to my surprise, the dream turned into a nightmare. Early retirement on the beach was cool and all, but it got boring fast as I found myself lonely, depressed, and unfulfilled. To add insult to injury, I racked up $100K in debt due to some bad business decisions and an unsustainable lifestyle. Today, I run Nested Naturals, a wellness company on a mission to empower people through nature to rise to their highest potential.

Svi želimo biti utjecajniji, no većina nas smatra da ne možemo istrenirati osobni magnetizam ili karizmu koju povezujemo s ljudima poput Billa Clintona ili Oprah Winfrey, odnosno, često vjerujemo da su to kvalitete s kojima se čovjek (ne)rađa. U knjizi Compelling People John Neffinger i Matthew Kohut pokazuju da karizma nije nešto sa čime se moramo roditi, to je nešto što možemo naučiti. Autori istražuju put do utjecaja kroz ravnotežu dvije emocije - snage i topline. Oslanjajući se na najsuvremenija istraživanja iz područja društvenih znanosti, kao i vlastitog istraživanja i rada s rukovoditeljima Fortune 500 kompanija, članovima Kongresa, TED govornicima i dobitnicima Nobelove nagrade, Compelling People objašnjava kako možemo naučiti koristiti te dvije emocije koje u komunikaciji mogu izazvati divljenje, poštovanje i naklonost drugih.

Security goes against our core beliefs, therefore security awareness training often falls flat because employees don't care about security. By showing employees the "why" and how it benefits them as individuals, they are much more open to the "how" and begin to appreciate the value security provides.
