Description

THE CHALLENGE

Many people fail to be persuasive because they naturally assume that influencing someone is shorthand for getting that person to agree with them. This mindset of “I have the right answer, and my job is to get you to agree,” is very risky.

It often results in the other person (or people) feeling disrespected and pressured. Ironically, we are least persuasive when we are most forcefully defending our own views and putting down or minimising the views of others.

As Noble Foods changes and evolves, it is more important than ever for our managers and influencers to be able to relay important information to their teams, understand their concerns and find a common ground where we can all move forward together in unison.

THE SOLUTION

In this workshop we will explore how to increase your level of influence. As you work through it, you’ll learn: 

• What personal influence is and how to develop it.

• How you can use different sources of personal power to increase your influence.

• Specific strategies to improve your influencing skills, so you can control the type of work you do and gain more satisfaction from your career. 

You will then be able to use these strategies in your role

Frequently Asked Questions

  • How is this program delivered?

    This program is delivered virtually. 

  • Is there any pre-work to complete prior to the program?

    To get the most from our session, we would ask you to reflect and prepare in advance.

    Before we meet, please think of a real conversation you need to have—either work-related or personal. This could be:

    ✔ A difficult conversation you’ve been avoiding.
    ✔ A relationship you want to improve by starting a conversation.

    You will not be asked to share details of the issue, the people involved, or any specifics with the wider group. Instead, you will work one-on-one with a programme partner in full confidence. 

    The session will focus on themes and approaches, not personal details, ensuring a safe space for learning and practice.
