The Neuroscience
What the science has proven? !
1. Be the First to do a small favour (reciprocity) 2. Be Likable
1. Body language & tone (mirror neurons) 2. Similar to us (1:1 small talk doubles chances of winning a
negotiation) 3. Pay genuine compliments (positive feedback) 4. Cooperate (concede on something, win-win)
3. Consensus: when people at all levels follow the leader (law of social acceptance), everyone starts to follow

Trust!before!Engagement!&!Competence!
1. TRUST: "What are my leader’s intentions?”
2. ENGAGEMENT: “If there is no trust (i.e. disgust), then their engagement must be to manipulate me.”
3. COMPETENCE: "Is my leader capable of acting on those intentions (in #1 above)?”
