For persuasion to work effectively, trust is the foundation. If there is no trust, any sort of persuasion will fall flat. For managers, it is about creating psychological safety where people can easily share their ideas, opinions, and disagreements.

Think about it, if your manager asks you something, do you feel comfortable sharing exactly what's on your mind? If not, then whatever your manager says, you will take it without fully embracing it. It goes the same way with your team.

True persuasion comes with an open, honest, and candid dialogue.
