\"Influence<\/a>A change of view on influence<\/h2>\n

My training style went though a radical change after I met and studied with Mel Silberman, the Father of Active training. \u00a0<\/p>\n

Mel is considered one of the greatest contributors to the field of adult training, has written many of the best selling books on\u00a0training\u00a0and had been a tireless advocate for “learning by doing”.<\/p>\n

So why is this important to influence<\/strong>? \u00a0Well, with the thousands of books on influence<\/em>, persuasion and sales, most of the focus is on talk or verbal persuasion.<\/p>\n

When thinking about influence, consider the types of\u00a0experiences\u00a0you can create whether you are looking to influence<\/span> change in yourself \u00a0or influence change in others.<\/p>\n

Through analysis and review of the research, these experts can help the process of influence become easier and more effective.<\/p>\n
