Overview

One of the greatest capacities we possess is that of influencing behaviour. Yet many of us struggle to influence others for good when it matters most. 

Leadership isn’t simply about crafting inspiring visions, developing breakthrough products, or detailing business growth plans. Leadership is about mobilising others to achieve the vision, build the product, or enact the plans. At the end of the day, leadership is intentional influence. If behaviour isn’t changing, you aren’t leading.

Crucial Influence goes beyond corporate perks and charismatic personalities to teach a method for influencing human behaviour. Why does this matter? Because outcomes depend on people.

This course reveals the personal, social and structural sources that shape behaviour and teaches a method for using these sources to influence people and results.

Whether you’re launching a new product, changing safety standards, rolling out new software, or just trying to get your team to show up on time, the behaviour of people - and your ability to influence it - will determine your results.

Who will benefit

The Crucial Influence course teaches leadership skills that are essential for leaders at every level of the organisation - from new managers to top executives.
