Additional information

Influencing skills are essential in today’s dynamic NHS workplace that is constantly evolving and changing. Success and outcomes can only be achieved through, with and from others. Being able to influence without formal authority is an essential skill, and we cannot do this without confidence, commitment and the communication skills to fully express ourselves and engage our colleagues so they willingly work with us to make positive changes. As leaders our roles require that we draw on who we are, as well as what we do to inspire and engage our people.

On this 6-hour programme delivered over 2 days, we will learn how to offer others the invitation to change (behaviour, attitudes, thoughts and beliefs) and embrace new ways in a committed way.

Aims

Specifically you will learn:

What influencing is

What influential leaders focus on

How to use different methods/strategies to influence effectively

How to gain respect through your communication

When to ‘push’ and when to ‘pull’ with your communication so you become an influential communicator

How to analyse and influence key stakeholders based on how committed/informed/influential they are

The power you have and how to use it rather than abuse it

Linking your style of influencing/leading to suit and influence your stakeholder

Understanding unique personalities and adapting influencing strategies to suit them

An insight into how we can use mentoring and coaching skills to effectively influence others

Our Influencing and Engaging for Change programme is designed to give Doctors and other supporting clinicians the confidence, competence and commitment to become not just a great influencer but also a truly influential person.

The Influencing and Engaging for Change Programme is delivered over two 3 hour sessions. It will be delivered by virtual facilitator-led learning, with input from the facilitator, stories, examples and virtual break out groups so you can discuss the practical application with fellow Doctors. We will also watch video(s) to deepen our learning experience.
