The Influencing Option:
The Art of Building a Profit Culture in Business

by Libby Wagner
In a profit culture, Influencing is always better than commanding or ordering people. Winning your team over is better than ordering them. The Influencing Option actually helps leaders talk to people via a language and philosophy that works for the long-term, supports integrity and drives commitment. And all without relying on conflict, heavy-handed authority or guilt. In fact, candor and specificity are among its guiding lights. With a loss of faith in leaders and gross violations of ethical conduct today we need to lead with integrity and develop a commitment culture that is at once transparent, participatory and sustainable. Influencing as a leadership/management strategy fills this need to drive a profit culture.
