Event Details

Presenter: Shirley Poertner

Topic:  Influencer


Learn how to:

• Use the Influencer Model to develop and apply a robust influence strategy to anything from small to large-scale cultural transformations

• Rely less on formal authority and more on ways to motivate and enable others to alter their behavior

• Identify a handful of high-leverage behaviors which, if changed, will lead to desired results

• Diagnose the web of causes behind any problem and create powerful strategies for driving change

We can solve the problems you care about the most – from the simplest to the most persistent. We can help those we work with do the same.  How? By learning to be an influencer.
