Getting Results Without Authority

Series: Preparing for Management

Course: Getting Results Without Authority

Use influence, persuasion and negotiation to achieve "win-win" results!

As strict organizational hierarchies become a thing of the past and companies depend on teams to get the work done, building good relationships and cultivating influence in order to secure the results you want have become essential survival skills. Whether you're dealing with a boss, colleague or staff members with their own managers, winning their respect and cooperation is absolutely essential for career success.

This seminar will help you develop the skills you need to successfully draw upon the resources of your organization. It will help you improve the way you communicate to and across teams--and across functions--to get people working with you. Through your leader's expertise, diagnostic instruments and actual practice sessions, you'll master the art of developing strong alliances and moving people to do what you want. So the next time you need someone to buy into an idea, follow up on a request, or meet your needs, you won't be starting from ground zero.
