Speak Up and Up Your Influence
“Leadership is influence, nothing more, nothing less," according to author John Maxwell. We all want to influence others—and achieve our desired outcomes—but how do we gain this skill, especially in the absence of authority? This workshop offers hands-on practice to boost your influence, specifically by speaking up. First, we’ll discuss ways to be more effective in a meeting. What strategies can you employ to be heard amongst the cacophony of voices? Second, we’ll practice the art of self-promotion. How do you increase visibility to your accomplishments without coming across as bragging? You’ll leave this session with tactics to be seen, to be heard, and ultimately to be more influential.
