Because the core processes of a business that are responsible for creating end-products or services cut across functions, the best and most efficient way to meet customers’ needs is to improve the way in which people work together in a cross-functional environment.  This collaboration enables organizations to accomplish goals and implement major change initiatives more quickly and with better quality than if each function operated as a separate “fiefdom.”  Success often depends on the ability to influence people to carry out requests, support proposals, and implement decisions.

This session will cover high-impact strategies to effectively influence and gain commitment from others. 

Learning Objectives:

§  Recognize the eleven proactive influence tactics used by effective managers

§  Use an understanding of key situational factors to determine which tactic(s) would be most effective

§  Learn the skills required to effectively use the influence tactics to gain commitment to your plans and proposals

§  Develop an influence plan to gain support from the people whose commitment you need to achieve your objectives and business challenges
