The GFunnel Methodology
Influence Algorithm
The steps
- Identify what shift in the other party you are trying to produce. Be specific. “Change their mind” is too vague.
- Identify the gradient between their current state and the desired state.
- Per Vibration: match their frequency before introducing change. Mismatch in opening eliminates influence regardless of argument.
- Per Polarity: their objection is on the same axis as your position. Find the shared axis; transmute degree, do not eliminate the pole.
- Per Mentalism: locate their Third Kingdom. What identity, vision, or value is anchoring their current position? Influence at that level.
- Per Cause and Effect: identify which causes you can set. Direct argument is one cause; demonstration is another; environmental change is another. Choose the most effective.
- Per Rhythm: influence often requires multiple cycles. The first cycle establishes; subsequent cycles compound.
- Per Variable Principle: hold open whether the influence will succeed. Forcing influence damages relationship and reduces future influence capacity.
- Document the influence patterns that work. Per Database step.
