Dr. Robert Cialdani – The Science of Pre-Suasion
Dr. Robert Cialdini is the author of the legendary NY Times Bestseller book, Influence (which sold over 3 million copies and has been published in over 30 languages.) He is also the founder of Influence at Work and author to a new book called Pre-Suasion: A Revolutionary Way to Influence and Persuade.
Biggest takeaway: The big idea of this new work, Pre-Suasion, is that there’s a step that must happen before you deliver your key message and that it’s the state the listener is in when they hear your key message that determines how receptive they will be to it. Without this set-up, you may be less likely to persuade.

Carson Tate – Work Simply
Carson Tate is the author aof Work Simply: Embracing the Power of Your Personal Productivity Style and founder of a productivity consulting practice Working Simply.
Biggest takeaway: Everyone has their own personal productivity style, and because of that, one person’s system won’t necessarily work for everyone. So, if you’ve tried to use GTD or Evernote and couldn’t wrap your brain around why others swear by them when you just can’t get the knack of them, turns out they just don’t fit your style.

Mitch Joel – Reboot Your Business and Your Life
Mitch Joel is the CEO of Twist Image and author of Ctrl Alt Delete: Reboot Your Business. Reboot Your Life. Your Future Depends on It who, in dramatic fashion, describes this state of denial that many business owners and marketers are living in as purgatory.
Biggest takeaway: The change we are undergoing right now will dwarf what we’ve seen over the past five years. Every bit of data and information we share and consume is headed towards a single source, or, a single pipe. We are moving beyond customer service and marketing messages to an era where businesses must be built to interface directly with the customer at every level.
