Influence With A Heart (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780692761854)

"As a consultant and business coach, I've read many books on business, marketing, leadership, and influence... and it's very hard to find something that really impresses me like Ben Gioia's book did. "The author took the well-known key principles about influence and marketing that everyone else writes about, synthesized them, re-presented them from a new perspective, and created a completely new framework that's both very insightful and extremely practical. "'Influence with a Heart' is not a theoretical treatise but an action-oriented tool, a book you'll want to keep handy on your desk for ideas, inspiration, and suggestions to help you establish a real connection with your audience. "For each of the three pillars of his framework (Empathy, Story, Thought-Leadership), Ben first explains why it works, then presents a real-world case study to show the principle in action, and eventually gives the reader a step-by-step guide to applying the principle to solve her own business challenges. "I can tell from my personal experience that most books, courses, webinars, and blogs on marketing and business miss the action steps part. They spend too much time and energy establishing the author's thought-leadership instead of providing actionable value. "This book takes the opposite approach and focuses on helping the reader achieve her goal of becoming a better and more effective communicator. "Written in a conversational and entertaining way, 'Influence with a Heart' is a must read for anyone who wants to become a more influential leader and provide more value to their audience. -Giuseppe Fratoni Digital Marketing Consultant and Business Coach Rome, Italy - - - Ben Gioia ("joya") is a speaker, coach, bestselling author, and President of InfluenceWithAHeart.com.
