What management consultants can learn from a
lobbyist about the art and practice of influence
No matter what their specialty, the effectiveness and repeat business potential of consultants is largely based on their influence... and influence is an art that can be learned and used to advantage.
Don't miss our IMC Orange County Breakfast meeting on February 14, when a veteran political lobbyist shares war stories about gaining and exercising influence on behalf clients and against opponents. Our speaker, R. Alan Smith, J.D., has learned the art of influence in the crucible of the courtroom, corporate and government corridors of power, and the political battlefield. On February 14, he will provide practical information that you can apply to your consulting practice. Learn...
- Insider secrets to gaining and exercising influence with clients, third-party stakeholders and opponents.
- How to slow down, neutralize, or derail forces which threaten to defeat your ideas, initiatives, and the success of your business.
- Why big ideas without disciplined execution (powered by influence) are merely bright ideas going nowhere fast.
- How to use influence to build and sustain momentum for your ideas, initiatives, and the success of your business.
- And a lot more.
Don't miss this unique presentation on February 14 from a leading expert on the art of influence. This will not only be a great learning experience, but also an opportunity for you to network with consultants and other self-employed professionals in the Greater Orange County area.
