SessionThree010Enhancing Your Personal Influence: From Novice to Maestro JerryWeinberg and BeckyWinant Description "Man's spiritual creativity is not manifested by his philosophies, creeds, theological dogmas, or political systems, not in his wisdom, nor in his foolishness; it is manifested by the way he affects and transforms the world." - from the I Ching Many of us hope to influence the world around us. In organizations, we propose projects and hope that they will be funded. In project teams, we advocate approaches and hope that they will be adopted. Each of us hopes to see our actions influence events to achieve a desired goal. Some of us call ourselves consultants and attempt to help others do this. Others of us do this and have titles that reflect organizational roles. In fact the consultant's skills belong to every effective person. This session is about amplifying our effectiveness in influencing the world around us. It explores our native and learned skills, and our individual strategies for fostering our personal evolution from novice to maestro. Learning Objectives Participants will: - explore their own style of influence - what works and what doesn't - experience the effect of receiving advice in and out of context - discover how to enhance their personal influence - learn when their influence is more effective Back to TuesdaySchedule2003
