Find your own powers of persuasion for more effective outcomes

As roles become more flexible and organisations flatten in structure, the ability to persuade and influence others becomes an invaluable tool for building consensus and generating momentum in the workplace. This insightful workshop moves beyond traditional power structures and equips participants with the skills to work across the organisation or with external partners to gain support, inspire others and turn stakeholders into champions.

  • WORKSHOP CONTENT

Starting with a thorough understanding of the dynamics of authority and ‘soft power’ in the workplace, this workshop builds to a series of practical exercises, allowing participants to learn skills and practice techniques in the context of their own projects and challenges. Skills practise, case studies and group exercises embed the learnings as skills for more effective outcomes. The workshop also looks at the role of influence in managing team stress, improving working relationships and building sustained buy-in for projects and ideas.

  • LEARNING OUTCOMES

Upon completion of this workshop, participants will be able to:

  • Recognise the value of positive influence
  • Identify the key behaviours of effective influencers
