Do you know you have more influence than you think? Do you know, when you have hard times asking for things that you want, it's also equally hard for someone else to say no, and reject you! I have been fascinated by this topic as you know, I have Robert Cialdini on before to talk about this topic! In this episode, Vanessa Bohns, a social psychologist and professor of organizational behavior at Cornell University, and author, came on to talk about her new book, You Have More Influence Than You Think. In this episode, Vanessa shared the studies she had done, and stories to show that sometimes people would likely do what you asked than rejecting you!
