Influencing Action with Behavioural Science

Online course

Why people don't do what you want them to, and what to do instead.

"The most enjoyable course I have ever done." Lenny D.

 

About Influencing Action

"Fantastic and fascinating course." - Aaron T.

Everything we do in business is about influencing action. Getting customers to buy, clients to sign, colleagues to contribute, investors to back us and staff to be more productive.

And yet, that's probably where we go wrong most often.

The result? Frustration, missed opportunities and wasted effort.

In this course you will learn how to anticipate barriers to action before they happen, and devise solutions to make your life easier and more effective. You'll even have fun as you learn.

And best of all, you can take the course as an individual or team within an organisation.

"Fantastic and fascinating course. The Zorro technique was my peak and I now have a clear path in my head of how to use this to gain more clients and hopefully influence existing ones to use more of the services we offer!"

Lenny D.

"I knew about the model before as it was mentioned in a course from Rory Sutherland. I wanted to know more and have refined a first mind map I did on the model. The peak for me was all of those funny moments which made this course the most enjoyable course I have ever done."

Course Outline

Including over 3 hours of content, activities, templates and a members-only online community, Influencing ActionTM is structured in bite-sized chunks across five modules.

Module 1 explains why we've been approaching behavioural influence in the wrong way (which is why some days feel SO frustrating!), and how to fill an important gap in our understanding of customer behaviour.

Module 2 delves into laziness. In other words, why the people we're trying to influence can't.  be.  bothered.

Module 3 covers an interesting paradox. We like the freedom to choose but then get overwhelmed by it.

Module 4 takes us into the murky world of fear. Why the people we're trying to influence are scared to do what we're asking and what to do to get them over the line.

Module 5 wraps things up. We peak behind the curtain of behavioural techniques and Bri reveals all her secrets!

Module 6 a special bonus module on influencing different personality types.

Elisa M.

"The course certainly had my attention throughout. I liked the way it was presented - in bite sized chunks. The peak for me was the Zorro technique! This has given me the confidence to go out and grab (!) some new clients. The behavioural analysis and solution design on myself was interesting too. I'm very excited and feel like I have a clear plan rather than a jumbled mess in my brain!"

Katy P.

"I think my peak moment came from the Zorro technique. I could understand and relate. It has PEAKED ;) my interest. You have put the course into short parts which were great, allowed me to go through smoothly, making sure I'm not overwhelmed by the length or amount of information. Your use of funny GIF's and short clips brought enjoyment to the course."

Greg B.

"I really enjoyed the material and the engagement. All topics were relevant in our day-to-day working life. Understanding customer behaviour and utilising the fundamental questions template allows me to really delve into the customer's head. Empathy is a strong benefit in what we are trying to achieve. I feel all 3 behavioural barriers will be prevalent but Lazy has definitely provoked the most thought and analysis from myself."
