The ability to influence is one of the essential skills for leaders at all levels. It’s more art than science, and it can be tough to get your arms around.  But the bottom line is that influence matters.

Influence has countless benefits, and is a particularly valuable asset for career progression.

Influence is power. No matter who you are, where you work, or what your professional goals are, achieving more influence in the workplace is critical for success.

Gaining influence on a team can help you work together more effectively. Gaining influence in a supervisory position can make you more respected and appreciated.

Gaining influence in a meeting can make your voice more likely to be heard and acknowledged.

Successful influencing is about making a connection and appealing to the heart as well as the head.

It is about identifying personal triggers and adapting your style to others’ to get the best results from the people you are trying to influence.

A combination of communication and interpersonal skills will help you to get the results you need.

Join Shawn Stratton (LinkedIn profile)  as he covers some practical hints to help develop your powers of influencing whether you need a decision from your boss, an “awkward” peer to help you or a client to accept your new prices.

It isn’t easy to make exact copies of even a simple product, but at least you begin that effort knowing what “done” looks like.

Development introduces a special kind of challenge – you only learn what “done” looks like at the end.

The critical path for execution becomes dependent upon the critical path for definition and vice versa.

The development path can be thought of as a part “altitude” you wish to attain and part “distance” you must travel to get there.

Randall Iliff (LinkedIn profile) will use this powerful analogy to explore why development outcomes vary so widely, why Agile methods are essential, and to help you plot the optimum launch trajectory for any given effort.

The 13 Behaviors of High-Trust Leaders®, based on the international bestselling book The Speed of Trust: The One Thing That Changes Everything , by Stephen M.R. Covey.

In this preview, you will discover how 13 powerful behaviors can help you break down barriers that keep your team stuck when there is an overall lack of trust in the organization.

You’ll come away understanding that everything you do takes more time and costs more money when there’s low trust between you and those you depend on (and those who depend on you!).

Over time, when there’s low trust, relationships decay, projects fail, customers go to competitors and initiatives under-perform.

Join us to get a preview of what you can expect when you take The 13 Behaviors of High-Trust Leaders® seminar, including:

• The power of trust as a key engine for driving performance and productivity
• What tools you can use to manage change and lead high-performing teams
• How to practice specific behaviors that increase trust
• That with increased trust comes increased personal credibility
• How you can influence your team to become high performing, agile, innovative and engaged

We encourage you to register even if you are unable to attend live; you’ll receive replay information following the event.

Presenter: Stephen M.R. Covey is a cofounder of CoveyLink and the FranklinCovey Global Speed of Trust Practice. A sought-after keynote speaker and advisor on trust, leadership, ethics, sales, and high performance, he is the New York Times and Wall Street Journal bestselling author of The Speed of Trust: The One Thing That Changes Everything, a paradigm-shifting book that challenges our age-old assumption that trust is merely a soft, social virtue, and instead demonstrates that it is a hard-edged economic driver—a learnable, measurable skill that makes organizations more profitable, people more promotable, and relationships more energizing.

There is a lifecycle of Innovation Management itself: Awareness – commitment – leadership – assessment – improvement.

First challenge is: how to achieve awareness and commitment of senior management?

This is done by revealing the mechanics behind strategic decision-making and portfolio management.

Senior management should lead the effort, which starts with doing an assessment.

Once you have conducted a zero-measurement (a first assessment), then the task is to implement proper innovation capability.

This section explains in overview, how to go through the life cycle of innovation management and conduct first implementations as well as upgrades to existing innovation management processes.
