Leadership Lifters: How to Gain Influence (Part 1) - James W. Greer


 
An influencer has:

I – Integrity with people.

Once trust is betrayed, moving to the top of the ladder is out of the question.
A crisis reveals the character.
It is always easy to do right when you know ahead of time what you stand for.

N – Nurtures people.

Nurturing people does not mean needing people.
Nurturing people does mean lifting people to a higher level.
Nurturing peoples does mean loving people.
Nurturing people does mean commitment to people.

F – Faith in people.

Assets make things possible and people make things happen.
If you’re doing things right on the outside, but you’re not getting the results, it’s because there’s something wrong on the inside.

3 feelings that we cannot possess:
Fear.
Dislike.
Contempt.

L – Listens to people.

Quiz – Are you a good listener?

Do I allow the speaker to finish without interrupting?
Do I listen between the lines for the subtext?
Do I actively try to retain important facts?
When writing a message, do I listen for and set down the key facts and phrases?
Do I repeat the details of the interview to the subject in order to get everything right?
Do I avoid getting hostile or agitated when I disagree with the speaker?
Do I tune out distractions when listening? Am I a distraction?
Do I make an effort to seem interested in what the other person is saying?
