As you progress in seniority as a leader, your scope of influence increases alongside you. But as your relative organisational power increases so does the way in which it effects people. As such, the ways in which leaders wield their influence must change.

In this session we’ll explore ways to influence without exerting authority, providing structures and frameworks that can be applied to multiple situations. We’ll be considering how to clarify and communicate your position, all while taking the needs of your teammates and colleagues into account. We’ll also discuss how to navigate some tricky situations that may occur and times when the direction you are influencing in might prove unpopular.
