Influencing Powerfully in a Matrix Environment

As organizations move toward more matrix structures, leaders need to increasingly learn how to influence across the organization – across functions, geographies, and hierarchies. We need to get our goals accomplished through others over whom we have no direct authority. During this workshop, each leader:

• Works through a specific influencing opportunity they have identified in the workplace
• Practices a five-step model to accomplish their current and future influencing goals
• Identifies personal limiting beliefs that keep them from influencing powerfully
• Learns five different influencing styles and practices influencing with another participant
• Walks out with a specific action plan tailored for their influencing situation
