How influential are your leaders and managers?

We have designed a one-day or two-day hands-on workshop that show leaders, managers and service professionals how to use, apply and combine influencing techniques

Influencing is :

• Situational; you need to adapt your approach for different people at different times

• Needed in combination; no single technique will work in every situation

• Value based; you need to offer something of value to the people you wish to influence. No value. No influence.

• A catalyst; influential people are able to get more things done quicker.

• Dynamic; things change. A technique that worked last year may not work this year if everyone is exposed to it.

Influencing is not:

• Manipulation; your intention and purpose should be as transparent and ethical as possible
