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".

More or Less: Behind the Stats - Did one in 10 Greeks die in World War Two?
When World War Two came to Greece, a period of terrible human suffering followed. There was a brutal battle with Italian and then Nazi forces, followed by an occupation in which thousands were executed and a terrible famine swept the nation.
There?s an often repeated number that appears to capture the brutality of this time ? that 10% of the Greek population died during the war.
We investigate where this statistic comes from and whether it is true.
