In the workplace, command-and-control leadership—the “I lead, you follow” approach--does not work anymore. But how do you influence without authority?
Many employees and managers are realizing that they need to get things done through peers inside and outside of their organizations. In this age of heightened business complexity, it is imperative for the 21st-century leader to be able to influence without express authority.
In this workshop you will learn:
- Characteristics of lateral influencing
- Key Strategies for influencing peers and senior executives
- Role-play multiple scenarios for achieving consensus and buy-in from teammates
- Common pitfalls to avoid
- Advice on ways to continue developing this very critical soft skill
