Why are Influence Skills so Important and What Do I Need to Learn to be a Better Influencer?

If you work in the corporate world, your job requires you to influence people just about all of the time. It may take the form of gaining support, inspiring others,
persuading other people to become your champions, engaging someone's imagination, asserting yourself, listening, attracting others to your ideas or
creating relationships. There is no right way, nor is there only one way to influence people but there are concrete skills you can learn to increase your chances
of becoming more influential.

Whatever form it takes, being an excellent influencer makes your job easier. People who use positive communication skills to influence people are easier to
be around - others will gravitate towards you and want to be part of what you are doing. That's where communication skills training comes in!

  • Influencing is about understanding yourself and the effect or impact you have on others. The Positive Power and Influence® Program teaches
    participants how to adapt and modify their personal style as they become aware of the affect they are having on other people.

  • Truly excellent influencing skills require a healthy combination of interpersonal skills, communication skills, presentation skills and assertiveness
    techniques. All of these positive influence styles can be used to strengthen and build relationships. The Positive Power and Influence® Program can
    teach you how.  

  • Influencing people is also about being able to move things forward, without pushing, forcing or telling others what to do. It is the ability to get things
    done through others without the use of authority. You may try to exert your influence through coercion and manipulation. You might even succeed in
    getting things done; but that isn't really influencing. That's forcing people to do what you want, often against their will. Pushing, bullying or using other
    negative tactics won't work.  People will remember the experience. These negative tactics are not Influence Skills. You won't succeed in winning
    support and you will make your job harder in the future.  

  • Whatever the arena you work in, influencing others is about having the confidence and willingness to use communication skills to make things
    happen -  face to face, in a large group, one on one or over the phone.
