Congratulations, you have captured an imaginative and novel approach to building successful personal and business relationships.  I particularly enjoyed your fascinating examples about how the principles you describe are used in all parts of life. The workbook sections are also an elegant approach to self development.

            As you know, I have been a board member, investor or senior consultant to more than 50 early stage companies and each one of these companies could benefit from your approach. With your permission, I am featuring your book on my radio program.

            When I read Outfluence, I instantly recognized the power in your message.  The most effective Communication at its core is most often silent.  You make a persuasive case that “do as you see me do” is always more effective than “do as I say.” The methods, you describe in Outfluence, teach people of all ages and all backgrounds how to thoughtfully and purposefully impact the lives of others silently. 

            As a former professor, entrepreneur, mentor and radio personality, the ability to persuade others to my point of view is paramount.  Until I read Outfluence, I never fully appreciated the value of silence to the process of persuasion.  The tools of silence – constant messaging, inspired performance, and silent marketing – impact the components of persuasion over and over again.
