They believe in neutro-linguistic programming (NLP), which in this case would be Ericksonian covert-hypnosis. The first steps are for the controller to converse with you, preferably seated side by side, and subtly match your body language, which apparently goes a long way toward making most people trust the controller. Then it escalates to things like shoulder taps, often in the context of a joke.
The brain [and heart] of Vanguard. Eventually you feel like you have known the controller forever and are very much at ease with him. Keith is supposed to be a master of this stuff.
