The New Rules of Influence: How to Authentically Build Trust, Drive Change, and Make an Impact Paperback – August 27, 2024
Purchase options and add-ons
It’s time to throw out the old rules of influence and become the leader you’ve always wanted to be.
A new type of leader is emerging—one with a bold mission who empowers others through transparency and unwavering passion. Modern-day executive presence mandates levels of authenticity and honesty never before seen in the C-suite.
Personal branding and reputation management expert, Lida Citroën guides leaders through this new paradigm of executive presence and influence. Through inspiring examples, compelling stories, and practical exercises, Citroën helps leaders tap into their passion, connect authentically with others, and create space for inclusivity and community.
Greta Thunberg is a powerful example of a new paradigm leader. The Swedish teenager ‘s influence arguably exceeds that of most CEOs or political leaders. The youngest person to be named Time’s Person of the Year, she radically upended Swedish politics and world climate policy. Nothing about her conforms to the typical expectations of a leader’s executive presence—her power comes from her absolute honesty and genuine passion to make the world a better place.

- Reviewed in the United States on February 21, 2025I recently finished reading The New Rules of Influence by Lida Citroen, and it has been a true game-changer for me. Lida offers a refreshingly modern perspective on influence, one that speaks directly to the challenges and opportunities faced by marginalized communities in our post-COVID era. The book blends personal branding, reputation management, and actionable strategies in a way that feels both genuine and empowering.
One passage that particularly resonated with me is: "Courage means when you believe in a cause, solution, or effort, you go forward with gusto and conviction." This insight not only captured the heart of the book but also inspired me to push past my own hesitations and actively pursue my goals.

- Reviewed in the United States on August 28, 2024I HIGHLY recommend this book! Many of us get comfortable being “behind the camera”, not raising our hands to share our ideas, and even not sharing that message that is so significant. Lida’s new book is the invitation we have been waiting for so long to finally authentically build our influence without waiting to have a job title, a followership on social media, or for someone to give us permission.
In The New Rules of Influence, Lida shares her stories and experiences that are relatable, but beyond that she shares her knowledge in an inspiring and motivating way, with actionable steps.

- Reviewed in the United States on November 30, 2024Lida always manages to take concepts that feel inaccessible and out of reach and transform them with her expert knowledge and engaging storytelling into a roadmap that anyone can execute. I loved how this how to book is layered with her own stories. Figuring out how to show up authentically while making a big impact on social media felt overwhelming until i read this book. I give this book a 10/10.
- Reviewed in the United States on August 27, 2024Lida wrote a keeper. "The New Rules of Influence" is a open faced alternative to yesterdays "old school" business rules. She challenges the blue suit and red tie, and replaces them with rules that work for "YOU", your story, your authenticity, and your truth. it's a cookbook that shows you how to take your place at the table. Loved every page!
