About

Beyond Inspiration: Research-Backed Tools For Leaders Who Need To Move People.

Most leadership programs make you choose — a memorable speaker or a useful framework. We deliver both: research-grade behavioral science, translated into tools leaders use long after the room clears.

Meet the Founder

Dr. JonRobert Tartaglione.

Founder & Principal · Influence 51

JonRobert Tartaglione is a psychologist and behavioral scientist by training — with a Ph.D. in Psychology from the University of Cambridge and research roots at several of the world's top universities.

He founded Influence 51 with a simple motivation: to bring powerful, research-backed insights from psychology and behavioral science to the individuals and organizations who can actually use them.

His applied frameworks now sit behind global brand launches, change initiatives, policy campaigns, and high-stakes negotiations. But it's not just cutting-edge content that sets JonRobert apart — it's how he delivers it. Entertaining, engaging, and immediately applicable.

There's a reason he's been called the best on the planet at what he does.

The Problems We Solve

WHY ORGANIZATIONS WORK WITH US.

Clients work with us when they want their leaders to be better at the human side of execution — earning buy-in, shaping decisions, communicating with influence, and turning good strategy into real behavior.

  1. They want their leaders to build the influence skills that turn ideas, strategies, and decisions into adoption on the ground.

  2. They want their managers to communicate persuasively — in feedback, in change rollouts, and in the moments that shape culture.

  3. They want their teams to lead change in ways that earn real buy-in, not just polite compliance.

  4. A change initiative is sound on paper, but adoption has stalled.

  5. A senior leader has a high-stakes moment ahead, but a rehearsed deck won't be enough.
