Developing Influence

The Fifth Habit is the “Developing Influence”. High performers develop influence by teaching people how to think and challenging them to grow.

When you teach people how to think, it'll change their lives. They tend to ask people questions such as: "What kind of person do you want to be remembered as?" or "What would life look like you if gave your all?

Over time, they train the people around them how to think -- because when you impact someone else's thoughts in a positive way, you have influence.

Similar ideas to Developing Influence

Developing your confidence

Developing your confidence

It's important to develop your confidence at work. When you're showing up as your authentic self, the easier it will be to advocate for what you want. With a higher sense of self-confidence, you'll have more influence when approaching your manager or other teammates.

Use emotions to influence

Use emotions to influence

Emotions can derail communication. When people get upset at one another, they stop thinking rationally.

Emotions are not an obstacle to successful negotiations. They are a means. Good negotiators know how to identify emotions and influence them.

Constant re-adjustment

People fail to realise how important developing the habit skill is. They have a specific idea of what their habit will be like, and when it doesn't go according to plan, they feel guilty and think they're a failure.

Overcome this with a flexible mindset.
