About this listen

Why do some people’s ideas gain traction while others, just as good, get ignored? In this episode of the Essential Skills for Humaning podcast, Christina Eanes and her co-host Lori Muhlstein explore what actually makes influence work in everyday workplace interactions.

Drawing on well-known principles of persuasion, this conversation explains how trust, credibility, consistency, and connection shape whether people say “yes,” lean in, or tune out. You’ll learn why influence isn’t about titles or charisma, how ethical persuasion shows up in meetings and collaborations, and what small shifts can dramatically increase your impact at work.

Whether you’re pitching an idea, navigating change, giving feedback, or trying to gain buy-in without authority, this episode will help you understand what makes influence effective, and how to use it with intention and integrity.
