The Art of Meaningful Influence

Charles Faulkner reveals the concept of "meaningful influence" — and why it is really the only kind of influence you will ever need to know about. In this powerful program, Faulkner dismantles the myth that effective persuasion requires manipulation or high-pressure tactics. Instead, he shows you how genuine influence — rooted in authentic connection and shared meaning — leads to outcomes that satisfy everyone involved.

Drawing on his decades of work in Neuro-Linguistic Programming, Faulkner teaches you how to identify what truly matters to the people around you, how to align your communication with their deepest values, and how to create the kind of trust that makes persuasion effortless and ethical.

What You'll Learn

  • How to distinguish genuine influence from manipulation — and why the difference transforms your results
  • How to recognize what people truly value through active listening and careful observation
  • How to apply the Value Matrix to dramatically strengthen your persuasive capacity
  • The five methods people use to assign significance — and how to work with each one
  • Why identity-based values are more powerful than practical considerations alone
  • The five-tier Pyramid of Influence framework for any conversation or negotiation
  • How everyday language patterns shape personal and organizational identity
  • The five universal life motivations that drive human behavior
  • How personal narratives shape future outcomes — and how to change the story
