What does the Mind Games in The Psychology of Influence Self-Assessment include?

The Mind Games in The Psychology of Influence Self-Assessment includes 320 structured questions across six psychological domains, five-point scoring rubrics, gap analysis matrices, automated Excel scoring templates, a 48-page implementation guide, and 24 targeted influence playbooks. All materials are delivered as instant-download digital files in PDF and Excel formats, designed for individual or organisational use in evaluating and improving persuasion and negotiation effectiveness.

What if your inability to anticipate psychological blind spots in high-stakes negotiations is already costing you deals, credibility, and strategic influence? The Mind Games in The Psychology of Influence , Mastering Persuasion and Negotiation Self-Assessment delivers a battle-tested, comprehensive evaluation system that uncovers hidden cognitive biases, power missteps, and influence failures in your current approach. Without this self-assessment, you risk misreading counterpart motivations, triggering unintended resistance, or failing to anchor offers effectively, exposing your organisation to suboptimal agreements, eroded trust, or collapsed negotiations. With this structured toolkit, you gain immediate clarity on where your persuasion strategy is vulnerable, and how to fix it before the next critical conversation.

What You Receive

  • A 320-question self-assessment framework organised across six core domains of psychological influence: cognitive biases, power dynamics, reciprocity systems, commitment mechanisms, social proof structures, and scarcity framing, each question mapped to proven behavioural science principles from Cialdini, Kahneman, and Thaler
  • Five-point Likert-scale scoring rubrics for every question, enabling precise maturity benchmarking and progress tracking across individual, team, or organisational use
  • Four detailed gap analysis matrices that cross-map your results against ideal influence profiles for executive negotiation, sales persuasion, stakeholder alignment, and crisis mediation scenarios
  • Customisable Excel templates for automated scoring, visual maturity dashboards, and remediation prioritisation based on impact-effort analysis
  • A 48-page implementation guide outlining step-by-step protocols for interpreting results, identifying high-leverage intervention points, and building targeted influence development plans
  • 24 evidence-based influence playbooks, each triggered by specific assessment outcomes, providing direct action steps to correct misjudged anchoring, underutilised reciprocity, or misapplied authority cues
  • Full alignment with dual-process theory, prospect theory, and social exchange theory, ensuring your evaluation reflects academically validated models of human decision-making

How This Helps You

You don’t just assess influence, you master it. Each of the 320 targeted questions exposes a real-world vulnerability: failing to re-anchor after an aggressive first offer, misreading confirmation bias in stakeholder feedback, or unintentionally undermining your power position through premature concessions. By completing this self-assessment, you transform abstract psychological concepts into actionable diagnostics. You’ll pinpoint exactly where your negotiation prep lacks behavioural rigour, where your messaging triggers unintended defensiveness, or where you’re leaving value on the table due to poor reciprocity sequencing. The consequence of inaction? Continued reliance on intuition over insight, repeated patterns of stalled deals, and growing exposure to counterpart strategies that exploit your blind spots. This assessment eliminates guesswork, giving you a defensible, repeatable method to elevate every negotiation outcome.

Who Is This For?

  • Senior executives and C-suite leaders who must persuade boards, investors, or regulatory bodies with precision and ethical integrity
  • Negotiation leads and deal architects in consulting, legal, or M&A roles where influence directly determines contract value and terms
  • Compliance officers and risk managers assessing whether influence tactics in client interactions align with ethical disclosure standards
  • Internal change agents and transformation leads needing to build coalitions, overcome resistance, and secure buy-in across complex organisations
  • Coaches and trainers designing influence development programmes grounded in cognitive psychology, not anecdote
  • Anyone preparing for high-pressure negotiations where a single misstep in framing, timing, or commitment can cost millions

Purchasing the Mind Games in The Psychology of Influence , Mastering Persuasion and Negotiation Self-Assessment isn’t an expense, it’s a strategic upgrade to your decision architecture.

You gain instant digital access to all files upon purchase: PDF questionnaires, Excel scoring tools, and implementation guides, ready to deploy solo or across teams. Take control of the psychological dynamics that shape outcomes. The real risk isn’t over-investing in influence, it’s underestimating its power.
