Workplace Application:
Being able to influence people (even those who work for you!) is essential for HR leaders at all levels. We'll review a tried-and-true methodology for mobilizing your employees, co-workers and even those above you to rally around your priorities!
Getting stuff done in the office can be challenging even under the best of circumstances. Everyone has their own priorities and deadlines. However, you've also got your own projects and getting them successfully implemented typically requires assistance from employees who don't work for you. This is where your powers of influence can help! In this fun and lively presentation, we'll review strategies to help you influence without authority for your projects and your career!
Learning Objectives:
- Inspiring others to share your vision (not just HR).
- Recognizing resistance to change from senior leaders - and how to overcome it.
- Why adapting your communication style to the person you're influencing is critical to your success (and how to do it on the fly).
- Going beyond logic - using emotions to win your point.
- Using 'constructive persuasion' to change viewpoints.
