“Very rarely do I hear a speaker whose message stays with me after I leave the session…I am still amazed how often I am drawn to his words…informative, motivational, interactive and downright helpful with everyday life situations. I immediately put into practice some of his techniques, and found them very beneficial.” 

“Thanks for your excellent presentation on the strategy of influence and change in attitude. It was very well received by our distributors and Hercules representatives, and I’m sure will create a better thought process by all in selling and in management.”

“If you are looking for a speaker with an important message for salespeople, Dr. Cialdini has some powerful insights on influence human behavior (customers, prospects, agents, employees, etc.).”

“Dr. Cialdini was a big hit. His message on influence is memorable and applicable across a broad range of contexts. He was the opening keynote speaker at the conference and got the conference off to a great start. One attendee remarked after his address that hearing his presentation was time and money well spent to attend the entire conference.”

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

“Our Fortune 1000 executive attendees embraced Dr. Cialdini’s thought-provoking principles and scored him in the top percentile of speakers at the Alexander Group’s Annual Chief Sales Executive Forum. That’s significant given our discerning audience who set the bar consistently high!” 

“Dr. Cialdini’s materials have been truly invaluable for directing our marketing efforts and focus. Nothing else comes close to his insights.”

“This book is the de facto standard to learn the psychology of persuasion. If you don’t read it, I hope you enjoy pounding your head against the wall and throwing away marketing dollars.”

“His presentation was stirring and full of information to help in the influencing decisions and more specific in getting closure on your ideas and services. I would recommend that anyone that works with the public and wants to persuade them in a decision or just influence thinking (executive, teacher, salesperson, politician) should attend Bob’s presentation. It is an educational, entertaining and value-adding experience.”

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

“Robert Cialdini is the best expert on Persuasion and Influence in the world.”

“Great session with our customers, most of them CIOs of multinational companies. Dr. Cialdini managed to combine theory with practice in such a way that we all left the session with ideas to put into practice.”

“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.”

“Dr. Robert Cialdini literally touched thousands of lives and you met all facets of our mission statement. He helped solidify an outstanding Day, and helped create the significant impact we were seeking for our diverse audience.”

“He was among the highest-rated speakers we ever had at our conference. So I continue to dream about having him back.” 

“Robert Cialdini far exceeded the expectations of a very cynical group of public relations executives and made me a hero in the process. He was engaging, authoritative and had done his homework on our industry. He gave us useful information in a compelling delivery and we were able to put it into practice that very day.”

“Thank you for your very informative, usable and enjoyable presentation at the recent MediaCat Forum in Istanbul. Although we had many excellent presenters, you were the best and received the highest ratings of the entire conference.” 

“The Principles of Ethical Influence, as taught by Bob Cialdini, needs to be a part of every salesperson’s toolkit. What strikes me is not only the simplicity of his message but the power it provides in practice.”

“You promised, and delivered! People were talking about Dr. Cialdini’s presentation. It gave our whole CMO event an important added dimension beyond the “usual” marketing strategies and tactics that most sessions emphasize.” 

“Thank you so much for meeting with our company and imparting your wisdom. It has really made a difference. Thanks again for being such a huge ‘influence’ on Massey Knakal!“

“You were exceptional.”

“I am sure that the conclusions you draw will have a major influence on management and sales practices.”

“Dr. Robert Cialdini’s information and “principles of persuasion” program are a terrific foundation for any organization desiring to improve its sales, negotiation, and change management skills efforts. Having attended his program, I highly recommend Dr. Cialdini as a professional speaker.”

“He blew everybody away. They were thrilled. In fact, afterward, one of our lead people pulled me aside and said he came into this program thinking he had been oversold about Dr. Cialdini’s effectiveness. He admitted he was wrong, and ended up taking 6 pages of notes on ways he can apply this information immediately to his work. And yes, you can quote me on this.”

“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.”

“Dr. Cialdini, I was concerned that because my sales team is very senior, sophisticated, and experienced, if you did not keep their attention, they would simply walk out, get on their Treos or start taking phone calls. I was most pleased that they stayed, were engaged and, from their responses, now months afterward, found: new, useful, long-term and important lessons to make these ‘old pro’s’ even better. Mission accomplished!”

“We were impressed with Dr. Cialdini‘s quick grasp of both our company and the highly complex healthcare industry. His extensive knowledge in the field of persuasion allowed him to provide us with tangible actions we could take to enhance our marketing materials and help differentiate us from our competitors.”
