Event Details

Year after year, students are eager for a chance to take Yale University professor Zoe Chance's course "Mastering Influence and Persuasion"—the most popular at the Management school. Now, she is sharing her wisdom with everyone in Influence Is Your Superpower: The Science of Winning Hearts, Sparking Change, and Making Good Things Happen.


Influence doesn't work the way you think because you don't think the way you think. Move past common misconceptions—such as the idea that asking for more will make people dislike you—and understand why your go-to negotiation strategies are probably making you less influential. Influence Is Your Superpower will teach you how to transform your life, your organization, and perhaps even the course of history. It's an ethical approach to influence that will make life better for everyone, starting with you. On March 3, Professor Chance will give a virtual talk discussing key insights from her new book and how people can benefit from her deeply ethical approach to influence.
