If you’re looking for mechanisms that can be great metaphors, one of my favorites is “ratchet”
An obscure one is tensegrity (tensile integrity, a very light structure held together purely by tensioned elements)

Play on words. Both leverage and conversation

Though the spelling is different.
Parlay = compounding bets
Parley = dialog/dialectic/negotiation/conversation
Maybe "Parley to Parlay: How to turn talk into triumph"
Economist Deirdre McCloskey in fact posits "talk" as the 4th kind of capital after land/labor/money
