Overview

In this course, we lay the foundation for the core capability of leaders: influence. The ultimate outcome of this course is maximizing your capacity to influence people toward a shared goal. The course is also built around the premise that influence isn't a one-size-fits-all approach. The most effective leaders match their approach to the challenge at hand. In other words, the most effective leaders are adaptive; they diagnose the situation and choose the behavior best suited for it. This course gives you a greater awareness of your readiness to influence others and create a high-impact plan for continuing your development.

Structure
