How to Overcome anything A - Z - I is for Influence.
How are your influencing skills?
Highly successful people are able to influence those around them very successfully. Great influencers manage to get other people to go along with their ideas while maintaining the relationship. If people feel they are being manipulated, relationships will be damaged. So I encourage you to improve your skills. Yes it is a skill that can be enhanced, once you are aware that's what you want to do.
There are many books written on the subject which gives you an indication of the power of influencing. Particularly if your goal is dependant on the actions of others.
Here are some tips to start you off:
1. Gain rapport - even something like remembering the person's name will make a huge difference. make the person feel as though they are the most important person in your life at that moment.
2. Ask questions - get to know the person, show an interest.
3. Listen actively - demonstrate that you are listening and suspend judgment
Two books I thoroughly recommend are:
