Episode 19 | Interviewology | Discipline, Manipulation, and Influence: Control and Power In an Interview
The Art Of The InterviewShow Notes
Control is a negative buzzword in today's culture.
Controlling spouses. Controlling governments. Controlling religions. Control, control, control, I don't want to be controlled!
But actually, healthy control is essential to being a healthy human being and a quality interviewer.
But what's the difference between unhealthy and healthy control, both in general and in an interview?
In this episode, I explore the difference between discipline and manipulation, how they manifest in an interview for good and bad, and how to achieve influence by disciplining your interviewing practices and staying away from interviewee manipulation!
