These persuasive communicators are so good, they’ll sell the shirt right off your back!
5. Donald Trump
He would fire his own mother if he had to. He was able to convince hundreds of investors to re-invest millions when he was down close to a billion.
4. Bill Clinton
“I did not have a sexual relationships with that women.”
3. Tony Robbins
You can’t help but to get excited just looking at this guy! Tony can easily sell ice to an Eskimo. Tony is famous for selling you on why you should sell you.
2. Oprah
She mentions a book and it goes into the top 10. If she puts a book in the Oprah Book Club, it becomes the #1 best seller. She can also take any company and make it profitable within a a day by showing the company’s product on the ‘Oprah’s Favorite Things’ episode. This has been referred to as “The Oprah Effect”
1. Barack Obama
He convinced America about a “change”. Also has an Oprah like effect, but obviously much greater. Many persuasion experts believe Barack has undergone a tremendous amount of training with the art of persuasion.
Good eye! Thanks
Never heard of Donal Trump. Donald perhaps?
Tony Robbins is one of my favorites. It's true the guy is really amazing and inspirational.
Tony is without a doubt amazing! He's one of the few speakers I can listen to for hours because of his tonality.
I will be on that list soon! Good post.
The Donald is looking more like Ted Kennedy….yikes. I do admire him– who could be this successful if he were not super intelligent? I do admire also how he takes care of his children from his marriages where he left the Mom on the curb.
My goal is to be on there too;)
lol! He is a VERY powerful man!
Obama is not persuasive. Over 50-million Americans voted against him even though they were not passionate about McCain. The 67-million whom DID vote for him don't even know who Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid happen to be… clueless sheep led to slaughter by the biased mass media news agencies. Credit NBC, ABC, CBS, CNN, AP, REUTERS, and the New York Times for the very boring, TelePrompTer-reading Obama's success.
Wide awake in America??? You guys have been asleep at the wheel for years! Everybody has gone past you, and you're still oblivious to this…. Obama is the best thing that has happened to America since you lost the war.
I got my first Tony Robbins DVD this year and as blown away by how much sense he made and he comes across as a guy that you just couldn't argue with because he seems to have a logical answer for just about everything. The man is awesome.
and even though i am Australian i have to agree with “some guy” about Barack Obama.
Yeah I reckon Obama has undertaken some training in the art of persuasion… but there’s no doubting he runs circles around anything Bush ever did. Cool page.
Absolutely true – especially the best info marketing tv show ever in Oprah. It’s so good you don’t even know it’s one big info-merical! 🙂 True re: Obama.
Obama's current support levels should tell you that he is sliding backwards down this list. Give those people on the list credit who can be persuasive for more than a few months before their star power started to fade….
Tony Robbins: 1.75 thumbs up (out of 2.00 of course).
Obama? Acronym for “One Big Ass Mistake America”
hahahh I love this too funny 🙂
Tony is amazing. His energy and enthusiasm quickly spreads!
Tony is a 2.00 in my books 😉
I get waht your trying to say JJ, but Obama is in fact very persuasive, it's just that too many people bring their political view point into the picture.
Look past your political views…and pay attention to his communication.
haha exactly. People don't pay conscious attention to it.
lol, anyone can run circles around what Bush did, even my 2 year old nephew 😉
Obama and Oprah are awesome!! Oprah is an Angel/Goddess IMHO!! Obama, it is so wonderful to not be ashamed of my countries leader. He speaks w intelligence and an inner calm. Tony Robbins is an amazing speaker he inspires me. Now the guy w the funny hair, idk what his appeal is, I just can't see it. I dont question his power I just don't see what the appeal is? I do agree that he is a really good parent. CLinton is a schmoozer, he is smart, intellegent and morally bankrupt, LOL!!
hahah Thank you for feedback on each person :). I was quite intrigued with a lot of people mentioning Trump's parenting skill.
They forgot Borat. “You must grab him by his horns”
That's a good idea…me too!!
hahah..I can't wait for Bruno
1st three, yes. agreed. #2 ??? if persuasive, subtly persuasive and #1….possibly. if you count positively inspiring as persuasive. I think Obama is less persuasive than he is someone who just outright makes changes. He kind of bypasses “persuasion” and just makes changes…which at some level could be the apex of persuasion, but it's not, it's really something different at that level. transcended.
Hey John, #2 Oprah went from nothing to everything. She is one of the few people in the world that can turn anyone into an instant millionaire overnight all by telling you to buy something.
If you listen to Obama's speeches or even break them apart, you'll notice that he uses a lot of the language patterns from NLP. He knows what he's doing and it works real well.
