POWER AND INFLUENCE: MAXIMIZING YOUR IMPACT
As much as we might like to deny it, power and politics are a reality in organizational life. Those wishing to implement new ideas, advance professionally, or help those around them to do their best work must attend to power and influence dynamics in order to succeed. The purpose of this session is to boost your performance in the area of power and influence by increasing your ability to recognize organizational politics and by helping you to identify strategies for maximizing your impact at all levels of the hierarchy. You will learn how to spot – and deal effectively with – the power dynamics you encounter throughout your organization as well as thoughtfully consider the particular approaches to power that are the strongest fit for you. This interactive session will serve as a “power tune-up” with an overview of the various bases of power and types of influence leaders have at their disposal for establishing productive cultures, motivating employees, and more effectively accomplishing organizational goals.
