Welcome! Becoming a Person of Influence: Positively Influencing the Lives of Others By: Jason Stoughton, CHBC Executive Director The John Maxwell Team Founder Champions Compass LLC

INFLUENCE Leadership is… The true meaning of leadership is influence – nothing more, nothing less. Law of EF Hutton – when the real leader speaks, people listen INFLUENCE

Goal is to INCREASE influence LEADERSHIP Increasing your influence equals increasing your leadership

Goal of Today: Better understanding of influence Increase positive influence with others

QUESTION #1: Who do you influence? Influence Inventory QUESTION #1: Who do you influence? Principle – as a leader “attract who you are, not who you want” List top 3 characteristics of who you want to be around… Do you possess those characteristics?

QUESTION #2: How do you influence others? Influence Inventory QUESTION #2: How do you influence others? FORCE Principle – how you influence people will determine how many, how long, and how effectively you influence them. Force – no choice in the decision

How do you influence others? Influence Inventory How do you influence others? INTIMIDATION Intimidation – my way or the highway “If you want to control someone, all you have to do is make them feel afraid.”

How do you influence others? Influence Inventory How do you influence others? MANIPULATION Manipulation – there’s a winner and a loser

How do you influence others? Influence Inventory How do you influence others? POSITION Positional – we follow because we have to

How do you influence others? Influence Inventory How do you influence others? EXCHANGE Exchange – we both win something

How do you influence others? Influence Inventory How do you influence others? PERSUASION Persuasion – we follow because we want to

How do you influence others? Influence Inventory How do you influence others? RESPECT Respect – we follow because of the request and respect for the influencer

QUESTION #3: How MANY do you influence? Influence Inventory QUESTION #3: How MANY do you influence? Everyone influences someone, few people influence a lot of people

QUESTION #4: WHEN do you influence others? Influence Inventory QUESTION #4: WHEN do you influence others? Leaders sense: LEADERS ARE READERS Teachable Moments

WHEN do you influence others? (it’s timing) Influence Inventory WHEN do you influence others? (it’s timing) Leaders sense: Hurt enough they have to change. Learn enough that they want to change. Receive enough that they are able to change. Hurt enough to have to change Learn enough to want to change Receive enough to be able to change Breakthrough Places

WHEN do you influence others? Influence Inventory WHEN do you influence others? Leaders sense: Catalyst times

Influence Inventory QUESTION #5: WHY do you influence others? MOTIVES… WHY you do something will ultimately determine WHAT you do! Principle – why you do something will ultimately determine what you do Right motives are crucial to people because leadership functions on the basis of trust Continual wrong motives are a result of bad character

QUESTION #6: WHERE do you influence others? Influence Inventory QUESTION #6: WHERE do you influence others? Mistake – if I’m not on top, I can’t lead. Leadership is influence not position When I get to the top, then I will learn to lead If I were on top, everyone would follow – if people don’t follow you now, they won’t follow you then When I get to the top I will be able to do anything – when you get to the top you have to practice servant leadership

Insights into influence Leadership is INFLUENCE (the average person influences 4 people/day) Our influence with others is usually not in ALL AREAS With influence comes RESPONSIBILITY My influence with others is either POSITIVE or NEGATIVE Our influence can GROW People of positive influence ADD VALUE to others

We add value to people when: We truly VALUE people. We KNOW & RELATE to what they value. We make ourselves MORE VALUABLE. We do things that GOD values.

10 WAYS TO INCREASE INFLUENCE Trust is the glue that holds people together. Does my organization have good written values? Do the leaders practice and model them for others? Do I place the interests of my people above my own? Am I accountable to others for my actions? Since I know myself best, do I like who I am? Trust is the glue that holds people together.

10 WAYS TO INCREASE INFLUENCE Nurturing people: Does not mean needing people Does mean commitment to people Does mean loving people Does mean lifting people to a higher level NURTURE

10 WAYS TO INCREASE INFLUENCE Assets make things possible People make things happen Fear – if we are afraid of people we cannot confront them Dislike – if we dislike people in general we cannot lead them Contempt – if we look down on people, we will not value them Borrowed beliefs have no power We become outside what we believe inside Lack of belief in people hurts both the you (leader) and the people The greatest gift you give another person is to express belief in that person when that person doesn’t believe in himself PUT A “10” ON THEIR HEADS! Phillip Nasworthy Have FAITH in people.

10 WAYS TO INCREASE INFLUENCE Look at who’s speaking Ask questions Don’t interrupt Don’t change subject Emotion Responsive listening Look at speaker – meanings are not in words, but in people Ask questions – this is the quickest way to become a listener Don’t interrupt – it is just as rude to step on people’s ideas as it is to step on their toes. Don’t change subject – listening is wanting to hear Emotion – leaders must keep current of the undercurrents (pay attention to what’s real, not what we feel) Responsive listening – when people feel that you no longer listen or respond, they will go somewhere else To become a better listener, Ask these questions: What is their heart? What is their hope? What is their hurt? How can I help? LISTEN

10 WAYS TO INCREASE INFLUENCE Why relationships fail: Fear which causes us to erect barriers Selfishness which causes us to focus on self instead of others Keys… Seek to UNDERSTAND

10 WAYS TO INCREASE INFLUENCE GROW YOURSELF GROW PEOPLE GROW ORGANIZATION You cannot give what you do not have Success is knowing your purpose in life, growing to your maximum potential, and sowing seeds that benefit others Success – when you work hard to better yourself Significance – when you work hard to better others ENLARGE PEOPLE – be a river

10 WAYS TO INCREASE INFLUENCE There are those who can see the problem ahead and avoid it. There are those who can experience the problem and fix it. There are those who can not see the problem or fix it and they are overwhelmed. A leader is one who sees more than others see, farther than others see, before others see Experience – been there did that Success – been there did that successfully Responsibility – I’m willing to take others on the trip Communication – Encouraging –honest –continual Partnership – we go together – we help each other NAVIGATE FOR PEOPLE

10 WAYS TO INCREASE INFLUENCE Credibility + Communication = Connections Relationships – people listen because of who you know Sacrifice - people listen because of what you have suffered Insight - people listen because of what you know Experience - people listen because of what you have achieved Abilities - people listen because of what you are able to do Intuition - people listen because of what you sense Character - people listen because of your integrity Humility - people listen because of your heart Relevance - people listen because you identify with their needs Convictions - people listen because of your passion Go to their world. Communicate from the heart. Find the key to their life. CONNECT WITH PEOPLE

10 WAYS TO INCREASE INFLUENCE Determine not to know everything, not to know everything first, not to become the primary source of communication, to let someone else represent you, to stay with your strengths. Empowerment means: Seeing the potential of the individual and the proper fit for the job Saying words that encourage, equip and empower that person Sharing your knowledge, experience and influence with them Showing to others your belief in and power given to that person EMPOWER PEOPLE
