Influence Skills

Your company has just reorganized for the 6th time in three years and has gone to a "Matrix" organization. Leaders and Managers are now typically responsible for the success of several project teams, a "Core" team and several bosses. Your impact has to be quick and dead-on.

A one or two-day learning experience in which Leaders and Managers learn and practice:
How to interpret and process 360-feedback from colleagues
An influence model for analyzing face-to-face situations
How to refine and better use existing influence skills and develop more effective alternatives
How to effectively influence across, down, and up with and without positional authority
How to create an "influence" plan for a real-time situation

Leaders and Managers will be able to:
In all situations get things done without positional power
Motivate others to achieve goals they normally wouldn't do on their own initiative
Motivate without causing others to feel less powerful
Think more strategically about influencing others

"After the program, we not only saw individuals with improved skills, but also increased team effectiveness. The influence program opened the minds of individuals to behaviors of others around them and consequently how to be effective in a group."
