How can we create better connections with other people to help us meet our objectives?

On this episode, I\u2019m speaking to a Behavioural Scientist that was introduced to me by my good friends Tim Houlihan and Kurt Nelson, hosts of the Behavioral Grooves podcast.

The reason I mention that is because it's highly relevant to the topic I\u2019m going to be covering on this episode. That topic is influence and the ways in which human connection, trust and community can help us meet our personal objectives.

My guest Jon Levy is a Behavioural Scientist who has just written a book called 'You\u2019re Invited: The Art & Science of Cultivating Influence'. In it, he explores the factors that allow us to build connections with others and how we can make those work in our favour. By following simple steps \u2013 and by adopting behaviours that might at first seem counter-intuitive - we can develop much more effective relationships with others.

Jon knows what he\u2019s talking about. More than a decade ago, he founded The Influencers Dinner, a secret dining experience for industry leaders ranging from Nobel laureates, Olympians, celebrities, and executives, to artists and musicians. It\u2019s got a particular quirk that Jon explains in our discussion.

As you\u2019ll hear from the opening, Jon is a lot of fun and the conversation took us to some amazingly unexpected places. If you\u2019re at all curious about what builds a connection with people, then you\u2019re going to learn a lot. If you\u2019re not, then you\u2019re going to learn why you absolutely should be.
