Influence Beyond Authority
Rose James, MBA
Project leaders rarely have formal authority over every stakeholder involved in a project. Still, they are expected to drive results, align teams, and move initiatives forward. In this session, participants will learn science based strategies and practical techniques that help shape decisions, build alignment, and influence outcomes even when authority is limited.
At the end of this session, participants will leave with practical tools they can apply immediately, especially in complex project environments.
