Influencing can be challenging. Particularly if we don’t feel we have the authority of a specific role, or confidence in our ability to put our message across.

- Explore a spectrum of key influencing behaviours and when best to use them
- Have techniques to influence in potentially challenging situations. For example, speaking up in meetings, responding to someone in a more powerful position, giving a difficult message
- Understand how to maintain confidence when feeling challenged
- Know how the language of positive influence can boost engagement and personal impact
