There are many coaching tips<\/a><\/strong> that can be drawn from the science of influence. But while Madison Avenue drinks liberally from the fount of Robert Cialidini \u2013 and other scholars of this branch of psychology, few coaches take advantage of this knowledge. Here are three tips that guarantee instant influence and can make a real difference in your clients\u2019 results.<\/p>\n

Use these Coaching Tips: Develop Commonality to Generate Credibility<\/h3>\n

While our conscious minds focus on differences, our subconscious minds look for similarities. So by demonstrating similarities between ourselves and our clients, we create a powerful ally in our clients\u2019 subconscious minds. Little things, like mirroring their posture or their speech in pace, vocabulary or volume, can create an amazing sense of fellowship in our clients, and that can open a door of influence that can bring profoundly positive results.<\/p>\n

Bypass Their Gatekeeper through a State of Higher Suggestibility<\/h3>\n

By presenting our message in the form of stories, we can bypass the conscious mind\u2019s gatekeepers, and be heard directly by their subconscious mind. This is one of the most powerful coaching tips<\/strong>, perhaps because we were told stories as a child by our mothers, or perhaps it is because stories aren\u2019t actually real and are therefore not so threatening. In either case, stories induce a state of higher suggestibility that delivers our message more effectively and with more influence.<\/p>\n

Use Small Commitments to Generate Massive Consistency<\/h3>\n

Consistency is one of the most powerful drives for our subconscious minds. This explains why our behavior reflects our poor self-image, in spite of years of effort to consciously change how we act. So here is another one of the great coaching tips<\/span>: Use this drive for consistency to achieve changes in your clients\u2019 behavior. Ask your clients to make seemingly minor commitments. Once they have made the commitments, let the engines of their subconscious minds generate the energy that they need to change by driving their behavior to be consistent with these small commitments.<\/p>\n
