Successful influencing and political savvy strategies
We will learn about how to influence without authority and the “hamburger model” of task/process and climate you need to keep in mind when influencing others. We will also reframe common misunderstandings about politics and how to manage this in an ethical way.
You will learn how to identify “tricky situations” and “tricky managers” and understand the importance of thinking ahead.
Who should attend?
Heads of internal audit and senior audit managers who want to take stock of what they are currently doing and how to proactively promote the value of internal audit and head off potential pitfalls.
What will I learn?
Upon completion you will be able to:
- take stock around your own leadership and influencing style
- assess key stakeholders now and going forward and what they may be looking for
- understand the psychological factors that lead to irrational and unhelpful behaviour and how to manage them
