20 Sep Your Title Is Not Your Influence
You do not need the corner office to change the room.
You do not need the biggest title, the loudest voice, or the final vote.
Influence is built through trust.
When your words, actions, and values consistently align, people know what to expect from you. That consistency creates credibility, and credibility creates influence.
People may have to comply with authority.
They choose to follow influence.
Leader Tip:
• Model What You Want Multiplied
People pay attention to what you consistently do, not just what you ask them to do.
• Build Emotional Equity
Invest in relationships before you need something from them.
• Protect Your Credibility
What you do between the important meetings matters just as much as what you say during them.
You do not need authority to lead. You need trust.
