How To Influence And Persuade
Influencing and persuading skills are indispensable in modern organisations. Command and control structures have given way to less hierarchical, cross-team working where you get things done by inspiring and persuading.
Participants will learn how to develop their personal influence by:
- understanding the difference between influencing and persuading
- identifying their preferred influencing style: a self-evaluation
- identifying and practising 10 key interpersonal skills for influencing.
