You are about to discover the secret to influence, double your productivity, get more things done, and move to the next higher level.

By the end of this course, you will be able to apply the "I.N.F.L.U.E.N.C.E.R" Principle every time you want to influence and win people. The only way in the world to achieve your goals and attain the level of success you wanted is by possessing effective Influencing skills. This course is designed to help you become more influential, persuasive, and successful in your personal as well as your professional life. In this course, we start by defining what a leader is. We will see that leadership isn’t about having a particular position, title, or personal attributes. Just because you’re an executive doesn’t mean you’re a leader. Further, great leaders are not always born--they are made. If you’re not an effective leader now, you can grow and become an effective leader. You can learn the skills and techniques necessary to have social influence. That is what this course is primarily about--learning to be an effective leader.

Leadership is a key skill not only for managers but also for those who are formally not in charge. Organizations and communities need people who will lead and influence others even if it is only in certain situations. Unfortunately, many people "Hold Back" because they lack the skills and training to emerge as leaders or to be more effective leaders. The result is that organizations are not as effective as they could be, teams are not as effective, and individuals negatively impact their career prospects. The world needs great leaders no matter what your title is.
