Influence without power for technicians

During this course you will learn to build professional relationships, identify the interests of stakeholders and tailor your communication style accordingly. Gain more influence without using authority.

Achieve more with others, without using power and authority

Leadership and influencing are an extension of each other. Winning people over requires persuasiveness. Essential here is the ability to build relationships and be able to connect to the way in which others communicate. This course will increase your influence and make a difference as a professional and leader because of who you are.

Influence without power is a current theme. We increasingly work in matrix organizations, networks and virtual teams. Hierarchy fades into the background and more and more demands are placed on your personal skills. Technically you know exactly where you want to go, but what do you need to do to convince stakeholders within and outside the organization of this?

You want to gain better insight into the interests of your stakeholders. You also want to learn how to build and maintain strong professional relationships. Being able to connect to the needs and style of others will help you with this.
