Managers and professionals who have projects to carry out, changes to initiate or decision-makers to persuade need to know how to acquire and effectively exercise influence. The first step in increasing your influence is developing a thorough understanding of the issues at play in a given situation. The second is getting a good read of the people whose opinions you hope to sway.

This seminar explores various high-impact tactics for wielding influence in a project or management context. You will learn to adapt your leverage tactics to resonate with the people whose buy-in is essential to the success of your initiatives. You will also examine various methods for dealing with naysayers.

GOALS

  • Understand the dynamics of influence and how they shape project execution.
  • Assess the compatibility of project-related issues.
  • Identify and apply leverage tactics to engage key project stakeholders and ensure their ongoing collaboration.
  • Utilize the appropriate methods of influence to handle opposing views.

IS THIS FOR YOU?

  • Professionals.
  • Managers.
  • Mid-level and senior executives.

SPECIAL FEATURES

Hands-on program that will give you a set of helpful tools to bring your projects to fruition.

Participants will receive a certificate of completion from Executive Education HEC Montréal.

  7. Tactics for influencing active and passive opponents.
