Session Description: Getting stuff done in the office can be challenging under the best of circumstances. Even if you’re a senior leader, demanding action just doesn’t cut it anymore because everyone has their own priorities and deadlines. Instead, it’s about being able to positively influence people; creating an environment where employees want to help you succeed. Your priorities become their priorities. The key is learning how to influence up, down and across!
Learning Objectives:
Effectively communicate the “why” of the project.
Recognize resistance to change – and use “constructive persuasion” to change viewpoints.
Adapt your communication style to the person you’re trying to influence.
