The definition, and more, of INFLUENCE
Influence is a powerful word, that when properly executed, is much more than power. By definition it is the act of producing an effect without (an apparent) exertion of force or direct command or demand. A mouthful, it can move mountains, grow individuals and teams, and accomplish significant feats.
Leaders must have a successful capability to conduct their influence for a greater good than themselves and self glory. Executives, directors, managers, and project managers must prevail in this skill set.
I recently found a blog on this topic in relationship to social media. It has 4 terrific key points listed below.
1. Influence is simple… which makes it complicated.
2. Influence is contextual.
3. Influence is the product of reach and authority.
4. (Most) Influence is invisible.
