The Nod as a Manipulation Tool. Here's how nodding can help you achieve agreement: 1. Subconscious Influence: When you nod your head while talking about something, it subconsciously signals to your conversation partner that what you're saying is true or obvious. 2. Contagiousness: When one person nods, others often start imitating them. Thus, your nodding can trigger a chain reaction among those present, enhancing the overall sense of agreement. 3. Boosting Your Confidence: Nodding can also demonstrate your confidence in what you're saying.
