比建立「人脈」更重要的事！影響力，社群時代最不可或缺的社交工具你也曾有過這樣的疑惑與困擾嗎？ 為什麼社群朋友很多，但真正互動、真心聊天的卻很少？ 為什麼有些社群很活絡，網友互動或銷售動能很強？  如何和陌生人或影響力人士建立關係，成功破冰、展現專業？ 如何經營品牌，精準找到忠實客戶，顧客還願意主動推薦你？ 在分秒必爭、人們注意力有限的時代，如何吸引別人的注意，讓對方願意跟我們交流？沒錢、沒權、沒背景不會是障礙，內向、孤僻、不擅長社交都不是問題。無論你的夢想是什麼，「影響力」是成功的重要關鍵。新時代的社交力，「人脈」絕對不是累積一份名單就夠了。善用「影響力法則」，從線上到線下，形塑屬於自己的影響力！★行為科學家瓊・李維（Jon Levy），專精於改善企業行銷、銷售、消費者互動及內部文化的方式。十多年前，他創立「影響者晚宴」（The Influencers Dinner），成功邀請不同領域的傑出人士，包括：諾貝爾經濟學獎得主、奧運選手、企業高階主管、科學家、藝術家等。大家一同下廚、共進晚餐，但過程中不能討論職業或透露全名，等到最後一刻才揭曉身分。李維從中發現，人際社交力並不一定與其財富、背景或性格相關，主要關鍵在於：踏出舒適圈，找到影響力人士，建立信任、連結與社群意識。本書理論與實務兼具，從探討「信任」、「連結」、「社群意識」、「偏見」等議題出發，並將理論帶入生活，具體運用在商業、企業、線上或線下社群和人際關係領域中。本書說明改變人生的影響力法則，並回答以下三個問題：1.如何與影響力人士建立「連結」（connection）？2.如何與影響力人士建立深厚的「信任」（trust）？3.如何將「社群意識」（sense of community）轉化為對共同目標的投入？別再說你沒機會，你可以創造自己的機會！本書將改寫你對「人脈」與「社交」的觀點教你發揮影響力、與有影響力人士建立連結，打造相互支持的社群！▍各界影響力人士熱情推薦我深刻感受到李維對於人類行為的扎實研究與理解，畢竟他有辦法讓我和一群忙碌的專業人士為他做晚餐。李維是幫助人們建立連結、豐富彼此生活的大師。這本書透過簡單而引人入勝的文字，解釋他是如何做到這一切。——艾瑞克・馬斯金（Eric Maskin），諾貝爾獎得主、經濟學家「影響者晚宴」的體驗之所以美好，就在
