The Indicator from Planet Money - How influence actually works

Influence. The ability to persuade, motivate, or connect with other people. It's one of these skills that's hard to measure, but incredibly important in the office. However, some would argue that we often misunderstand how influence works.

Today on the show, we talk to Steve Martin, Faculty Director of Behavioral Science at Columbia Business School, about the unspoken rules of influence in the workplace.

Steve is author of a recently published book titled, "Influence at Work".

Everything Everywhere Daily - CDs, DVDs, and Blu Ray

In 1982, the Phillips and Sony Corporations jointly released the compact audio disc to the world. 

The technology involved was originally just used to play digital audio, but it actually had much more potential. 

Over the last 40 years, basic optical disc technology used in CDs has expanded to store digital video and every type of digital data. 

Yet, despite the ubiquity of the internet and the ability to access digital files all over the world, there is still a demand for this technology.

Learn more about optical discs, CDs, DVDs, and Blu-Ray discs on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NPR's Book of the Day - There is such a thing as too much quality time in Weike Wang’s ‘Rental House’

Tensions are running high for married couple Keru and Nate, who decide to rent a house in Cape Cod, sharing it with each set of parents at different points of a month-long trip. Their vacation seems to have stoked the fires of family dysfunction, eventually pushing Keru to a breaking point. Author Weike Wang believes in putting one's characters through trial by fire, which she does quite literally in her latest novel, Rental House. In today's episode, Wang speaks with NPR's Scott Simon about sometimes-frustrating family life, coexistence, and obstacles for characters.

Everything Everywhere Daily - The Plans for a US/Canadian War

The United States and Canada share the world's longest undefended border. The United States and the United Kingdom have shared what has been called a “special relationship” since the Second World War.

The idea of these countries going to war with each other today is unthinkable.

Yet, this was not always the case. There was a time when this was very thinkable, and that time was far more recent than most people realize. 

Learn more about the planning for a US/Canadian war and how both sides made plans to invade the other on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Everything Everywhere Daily - The Julio-Claudian Dynasty

The Roman Empire was ruled by a single family for its first century. The family was actually a merger of two of the most distinguished clans in Roman history. 

This family included some of the best and worst emperors in Rome's history. It also included a host of potential emperors who showed great potential but were killed under mysterious circumstances.

Ultimately, paranoia and poor leadership caused the family to collapse.

Learn more about the Julio-Claudian Dynasty and how they came to rule Rome on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
