Quickstart
This website strives to provide you all the necessary influence knowledge and skills in the shortest amount of time. Still, there is a lot to digest here. I understand that many people are busy and can't spend few hours reading the whole site in its entirety.
This is why I have created five learning tracks to support whatever purpose you want to use these skills for. These tracks cover topics that I have noticed most beginners would benefit the most. While it is preferable to go through the whole course, these tracks should get you started.
