The Influence Blog from The Gautrey Group is here to share ideas, stimulate thinking and get people talking more about influencing skills. It bridges the gap between a full article and a tweet, and enables us to quickly get our latest thinking out into the world so it can help others.

So if you are a client, a colleague, a friend or just someone who'd like to join in, please browse, follow and contribute to spreading practical ideas and new thinking on the subject of power and influence in the workplace.

Influencing Upwards

One of the major challenges many people I train face is how to become more effective at influencing more senior people in their organisation. The challenges arise because these people are busy, have many different things on their plate and simply don't have time for things that are not on their agenda.

On our workshops, we help people to find out how they can take practical action to influence them more effectively, but we'd love to hear your ideas too. Please take a moment to share your ideas on how to successfully influence your bosses, so we can all learn together.

We'd love to hear what you think about this. Please email us or post on our new Facebook Wall.
