The Science of Social Influence and Its Application II

Self-Paced Online Programme For Executives

The Science Of Social Influence And Its Application (Part II)

Social influence is something we do every day, maybe even every hour at work. It helps us to work well with our coworkers and clients to get things done, and done well. Influence is not for sales and marketing people also, even an everyday email at work may be an influence action. Basic, easy changes to our messages and to our requests can make them much more persuasive, influencing others to do things, and to work with us to get things done. Everyone’s ability to influence others can be improved by learning influence strategies that have scientifically proven to be successful. Participants will learn these strategies and principles during the training sessions and will have some opportunity to practice or summarize these in exercises or some basic take homework.

In this course, the influence topic is introduced, it is differentiated from seemingly similar topics such as persuasion and motivation, and two of the main principles are covered, with many examples given and supporting evidence provided.

This course is designed for business leaders and professionals in all industries and functions.  It is suggested to complete Part I of the same topic first, please find the details here.
