Influence Programme
Contribute in a way that shapes decisions
At a certain level, communication is no longer about being able to express ideas.
It becomes about what happens to those ideas in a discussion.
Are they adopted, challenged, ignored, or developed further?
Many professionals find that while they can explain their thinking clearly, they are not always influencing the direction of the conversation.
