Heart of Influence

HoI_Front_web.jpg (42620 bytes)Life is about people. It's about communication and relationship. It's about influencing and being influenced.

In his book, Heart of Influence, Jürgen shows us how we can live a life of influence, centred on the cornerstones of persuasion identified by Aristotle over 2300 years ago: 

  • ethos (character): the core of who we are, our values and beliefs
  • pathos (passion): a love for what we do and for people
  • logos (logic): the systematic search for win-win solutions

This book is not about quick-fix influence. Nor does it teach us to manipulate others for selfish ends; rather, it identifies the core of influence as being character and relationship. 

HoI_Back_web.jpg (62981 bytes)Our assertiveness and  personal integrity, coupled with an interest in the well-being of others naturally increases our influence equity, the right and privilege we have of impacting the lives of people around us.

After establishing the foundations of influence, Jürgen provides a toolkit outlining a systematic approach to changing people's perceptions in specific situations.

This powerful book provides real insights into how we can communicate more effectively and lead people towards the outcomes we desire.
