“The message given in your presentation is just what our people needed to confirm that the psychology of influence can be learned… If these messages are applied, then our objective of creating a more successful business will have been met.”

“The presentation was perfect. The audience was intrigued with what Dr. Cialdini had to say. He was most effective.”

“This program will help executives make better decisions and use their influence wisely… Robert Cialdini has had a greater impact on my thinking on this topic than any other scientist… The best popular book that demonstrates six or eight ways in which the quirks of your own mind will frequently prove dysfunctional to your best interests is Cialdini’s Influence.”

“Bob Cialdini was the top-scoring speaker at our Financial Advisers Conference, where some awarded him scores above the maximum. Additionally, he was at the top of the speakers of the European Annual Meeting. Bob’s ability to bring together fundamental behaviours of vital importance, with the logic and scientific evidence that support his concepts, made the presentations particularly powerful. He presented in an attractive and entertaining way that held the interest of the audiences throughout both conferences.”

“Dr. Cialdini was a perfect fit for our event. He and his team were incredible to work with leading up to the event and they delivered as promised, and more! Dr. Cialdini was polished and professional on stage, delivering a message tailored to our audience, and was gracious and kind to our attendees following his presentation. From our initial booking through Nancy Vogl Speakers Bureau, through Cialdini’s stage presentation, to the Q&A sessions and attendee photo ops, we could not be more pleased with Dr. Cialdini!”

“Anybody writing about persuasion and influence today stands on Cialdini’s shoulders. If you’ve got time for only one book, this is it.”

“After Dr. Cialdini’s program, the noise of praise was almost deafening.”

“Dr. Cialdini’s book was the foundation for much of what we spearheaded in the FBI that moved professional negotiators towards becoming crisis interveners. We copied very heavily from Cialdini’s book. We looked at ways people gain influence with another and it is all about relationship building, earning trust and demonstrating a genuine interest in their issues and concerns.” 

“Dr. Cialdini amazed our audience with his immense knowledge on the psychology of persuasion. His presentation style is relaxed, intense and ‘pleasantly confronting’. A brilliant mix! Over 350 managers could not get enough of Dr. Cialdini’s highly interesting lectures. After his last talk, he received a standing ovation, which is very rare in Holland. It was a sign of deep appreciation for his contribution to the success of the day.”

“Dr. Cialdini was the top speaker we’ve ever had…in or out of the organization. They loved him.”

“Both your content and style of presentation make it easy for one to relate your ’Principles of Influence‘ to virtually any business or endeavor.”

“Dr. Cialdini’s program at the Training Leadership Summit was most impressive. His passion for translating science into ethical business actions gave these industry leaders powerful tools to use immediately. This program is a must for those serious about effective ethical influence.“ 

“The Training Directors’ Forum is the third event Robert Cialdini has keynoted for us and each time he has done an outstanding job—providing ethical and actionable information on the ‘Science of Influence’ that our participants can immediately apply in their work.”

“We’ve known for years that people buy based on emotions and justify their buying decision based on logic. Dr. Cialdini was able, in a lucid and cogent manner, to tell us why this happens. Our agents are now better positioned to influence their clients — in an ethical manner — to make better buying decisions. We could not be happier with his presentation.”

“Not only was his lecture and the subsequent discussion fascinating but for weeks afterward I heard people here and elsewhere referring to his insights and examples. My sense is also that Robert’s work is being taken very seriously in Government so I hope that his research will come in time to be more fully reflected in public policy.”

“Robert Cialdini, through his intensive research, has clearly shown that it is possible to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of persuasion to bring about amazingly positive results.” 

“I want to express my appreciation for your excellent presentation at The Forum on Executive Decision Making and Influence… the audience was composed entirely of senior executives from major U.S. and Canadian companies… The evaluations were in the ’excellent‘ range and you received more mentions as ’The part of the program I liked most‘ than any other speaker — quite an accomplishment given the competition!”

“There is no more famous influence expert than the ‘Godfather of Influence’: himself, Robert Cialdini. He is the author of the 1984 book that single-handedly revolutionized the study and practice of INFLUENCE.”

“Bob Cialdini is the most brilliant student of influence and negotiation I’ve encountered. If everything were on the line in a negotiation, I can’t think of anyone I’d rather have advising me.”
