ROBERT CIALDINI’S
INFLUENCE
THE PSYCHOLOGY OF INFLUENCE
Born 1945. Regents’ Professor Emeritus
of Psychology and Marketing at Arizona
State University. One of the most
influential and most cited psychologists
alive today.
Cialdini’s Influence is a global
bestselling business book and industry
bible on applying the psychology of
social influence to influence consumer
behaviour (Cialdini, 1993, 2009).

INFLUENCE
INFLUENCE
Influence refers to the effects that
others, whether real or imagined,
deliberate or not, have on how we think,
feel and behave
In business, we continually influence
others and are influenced by others.
The science of influence is a core topic
of social psychology

IN TWO MINDS
DUAL PROCESS MODEL OF INFLUENCE
There are many forms of influence, but
we may respond to influence in one of
two ways. If we have the motivation,
ability and opportunity, we may engage
in slow deliberate consideration of
information and options
If not, we may simply respond quickly
and intuitively based on how we feel,
and how we feel is partly determined by
the presence of ‘influence cues’ used by
the influencer. Cialdini’s Influence
focuses on six of these cues

THE HALO EFFECT
The ‘halo effect’ is the tendency to assume that if a
person has one positive characteristic, then they will
have others
An example of the halo effect is the ‘what is beautiful
is good’ principle which is our tendency to ascribe
positive characteristics to beautiful people
Halo effect studies show that beautiful people can
appear more intelligent, more successful, more
likeable, more qualified, more talented, having a
better personality and being a better person
People who appear more physically attractive can be
more likely to receive help, get hired, get elected,
and even found innocent in a court of law

One of the most influential and most cited psychologists alive today. Cialdini’s Influence is a global bestselling business book and industry bible on applying the psychology of social influence to influence consumer behaviour (Cialdini, 1993, 2009). ADVANCED CONSUMER BEHAVIOUR MASTERCLASS
  • 12. 12 APPLIED SOCIAL INFLUENCE INFLUENCE Influence refers to the effects that others, whether real or imagined, deliberate or not, have on how we think, feel and behave In business, we continually influence others and are influenced by others. The science of influence is a core topic of social psychology ADVANCED CONSUMER BEHAVIOUR MASTERCLASS
  • 13. 13 IN TWO MINDS DUAL PROCESS MODEL OF INFLUENCE There are many forms of influence, but we may respond to influence in one of two ways. If we have the motivation, ability and opportunity, we may engage in slow deliberate consideration of information and options If not, we may simply respond quickly and intuitively based on how we feel, and how we feel is partly determined by the presence of ‘influence cues’ used by the influencer. Cialdini’s Influence focuses on six of these cues ADVANCED CONSUMER BEHAVIOUR MASTERCLASS
