78 INFLUENCER


             group level, savvy folks draw on the enormous power of social
             influence to both motivate and enable the target behaviors. At
             the structural level, top performers take advantage of methods
             that most people rarely use. They attach appropriate reward
             structures to motivate people to pick up the vital behaviors. And
             finally, they go to pains to ensure that  things—systems,
             processes, reporting structures, visual cues, work layouts, tools,
             supplies, machinery, and so forth—support the vital behaviors.
                 With this model at the ready, influence geniuses know
             exactly which forces to bring into play in order to overdeter-
             mine their chances of success.
                 Pictorially, we can display these six sources of influence in
             the following model.
