Those feelings may instead have been the result of a lack of awareness we all seem to have for how our words, actions, and even our mere presence affect other people.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn \u003cem\u003eYou Have More Influence Than You Think\u003c\/em\u003e, social psychologist Vanessa Bohns draws from her original research to illustrate why we fail to recognize the influence we have, and how that lack of awareness can lead us to miss opportunities or accidentally misuse our power.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWeaving together compelling stories with cutting-edge science, Bohns answers the questions we all want to know (but may be afraid to ask): How much did she take to heart what I said earlier? Do they know they can push back on my suggestions? Did he notice whether I was there today? Will they agree to help me if I ask?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhether attending a meeting, sharing a post online, or mustering the nerve to ask for a favour, we often assume our actions, input, and requests will be overlooked or rejected. Bohns and her work demonstrate that people see us, listen to us, and agree to do things for us much more than we realize— for better, and worse.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eYou Have More Influence Than You Think\u003c\/em\u003e offers science-based strategies for observing the effect we have on others, reconsidering our fear of rejection, and even, sometimes, pulling back to use our influence less. It is a call to stop searching for ways to gain influence you \u003cem\u003edon't\u003c\/em\u003e have and to start recognizing the influence you don't realize you \u003cem\u003ealready have\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Unknown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46869201027308,"sku":"9781324035954","price":33.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/11043933482659.jpg?v=1759787141","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/products\/you-have-more-influence-than-you-think-by-vanessa-bohns-9781324035954","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
