Jill Anderson

As an influence and persuasion coach, I can help you Master the Science of "Yes."

In today's digital world, the loudest voice rarely wins. The most persuasive one does.

Many professionals rely on "hope" as a strategy. They hope the client sees the value. They hope the boss hears their idea. They hope their partner, friends, or children will listen. But hope isn't a strategy —behavioral science is.

I help individuals and organizations achieve better results and reach new goals using a systematic process and a new mindset.

People naturally resist new ideas for specific reasons. Understanding why and how to move people in your direction helps you be more successful in everything you do.

Whether it's a large-scale organizational change or personal resistance to a small idea, it's the same systematic process and mindset that will help you lead change and overcome human resistance.

To solve business problems, I help companies and individuals leverage the Secrets of Influence and Tools of Persuasion. Then, I use disciplined strategic planning, leadership, and leading change principles to accelerate positive results.

As a certified coach and founding member of the Cialdini® Institute, I can help you practically apply the science of influence and persuasion. My mission is to share the secrets of getting people to do things they didn't know they wanted to, using ethical and effective methods based on Dr. Robert Cialdini's groundbreaking research and organizational change tools.

I offer bespoke coaching on business challenges, keynote speaking on Leading Change, Secrets of Influence, and The Tools of Persuasion, full or half-day workshops, 45 to 90-minute webinars, and cutting-edge eLearning courses for transformational results.

Whether you need to solve a business problem, overcome resistance to change, execute a strategy, or build a stronger team, I can help you find and use the right tools and mindset.
