Gaining Boardroom Influence

How do you gain more boardroom influence with your peers?

In a recent private webcast for a leading association Phil gave a range of effective tips to help people increase their peer to peer persuasiveness, including:

Use framing to defuse issues or dismantle barriers

Give your audience an understanding of you, the topic and them.

  • Let them know your role and background and how it pertains to addressing the issue (even if it seemingly doesn't).
  • Give them your take on the topic, and display your full understanding of its nuances.
  • Show them you acknowledge them and their point of view.

By using this simple, effective technique you can raise the bar on your effectiveness from 4 out of 10 to 7 or 8 out of 10.
