In this episode, we had the pleasure of speaking with Vanessa Bohns, PhD, renowned social psychologist and author of the new book, You Have More Influence Than You Think. An expert in social influence, her work has been featured in The New York Times, Wall Street Journal, The Atlantic, and The Economist. Bohns offers valuable insight for recognizing the effects of our actions on others, re-examining our fear of rejection, and exerting influence with care. During this conversation you’ll learn: - How to rethink your perspective on social influence and persuasion - The illusion of invisibility - why people notice you more than you realize - Recognizing your influence and avoiding missed opportunities - Why saying no is not as easy as it seems - The importance of understanding power dynamics
