One example of passive persuation is simply to let people know what you think, what you stand for...without trying to persuade them to agree with you. This is called "advocating."
Another example is "leading by example." People see you in action and think..."This person is doing something right, is onto something important, I want to find out what this is and how to do it that way, that well..."
The advantage is, people don't see you as an adversary. They aren't put in a position of having to defend or try to win an argument. They don't have the feeling of being pressured to change. So it's easier to maintain good feelings and relations. Also, self-discovery is WAY more powerful than having to accept what someone else is trying to get you to accept...way more buy-in and acceptance.

The people get to choose whether they want to agree or not. The choice is what matters most.

People are less likely to stop listening immediately if they are not inclined to agree with you.
If it does not work you can be more aggressive.
