Convince effectively: the 5 keys to success

2024-01-26 14:42:40

It is often necessary to use a lot of know-how, even a little mischief, to rally others to our point of view. Here are some effective techniques to achieve this.

1/ Obtain a first “yes” to better convince your interlocutor

Sometimes it is better to divide our requests into two stages. Example: request no. 1 “Want to come over to the house Friday night, I’ll make dinner?” will undoubtedly be accepted, just like request no. 2 “By the way, can you help me cook a little first?” ; whereas if we formulate directly: “Can you help me make dinner for Friday night?”the answer may be no…

2/ Limit the options to convince

“Can we see each other Thursday or Friday?” By deliberately skipping the choices that don’t “suit” us – every other day in this case – we force the other’s hand a little. Unless there is a real impediment, he will be more inclined to opt for one of the choices offered.

3/ Measure your arguments to reach an agreement
