About this workshop
In this workshop, participants gain both the mindset and the tools to improve their ability to influence others, be they direct reports, peers, managers, or customers. By investigating the Where, Who, What, and How of influence, we build a roadmap to help them get from idea to action.
What we cover
- Where: use a version of the Five Whys technique to identify the true destination
- Who: take stock of the people involved, including oneself
- What: develop a message that aligns with the audience before designing a path forward
- How: choose the delivery method best suited to the destination, audience, and message

Keep the learning alive
Short videos from Elevate's Learning Library reinforce this workshop after the session. Managers can rewatch them anytime or use them with their own teams.
I think the most magical parts of the day were the parts where you were role-playing and ad libbing how you might respond to a question… They were the wow moments.
