Hello class.
I took an attitudes and persuasion class a few semesters ago and i found it to be so interesting and one of my favorite classes to date! During the course of the semester we were introduced (not in person) to Dr. Robert Caildini who is an expert in the field of compliance, persuasion and communications. I attached this web link as it really describes ideas of how to be an effective communicator and get what you want. The steps outlined here are used in many different fields from psychology to business and I that is why I think it is so relevant to this course and helpful to all of us. Thanks!
