Agenda
Creating a powerful argument: the role of logic
Influencing through powerful story telling Role of body language in effective persuasion: insights from corporate theatre (Ms. Sol Abyad) Principles underlying positive influence Feed-forward exercise on positive influence (if we have time)
4. Connect emotionally with your audience - match your emotional appeal to what your audience is feeling
Take 20 minutes, in groups (country report teams): By consensus make a list of 5 to 10 principles of effective persuasion.
Take a few minutes to evaluate yourself against your individual list of principles of effective influencing. - How did you do in terms of persuading others? - Did you apply the principles that are important to you to influence the team?
Take a few minutes with a partner to discuss your performance in the teams in terms of influencing. - Explain to him/her if you were able to influence the team to include your selected principles in the team list? - What did you say to influence others? - What do you wish you had done?
What is your take-away from your own self-analysis? Identify one thing that you want to get better at.
Take 15 minutes to collect advice: feed forward - each person selects one thing they want to get better at when they influence others (the outcome of your self-analysis) - take 15 minutes to interview as many people as possible to get their advice on how you can improve on your selected item - find a partner, briefly state the one thing you want to work on, and ask for advice what you can do; ask for concrete, specific, useable advice; thank the partner and invite him/her to share the one thing he/she wants to work on; then offer advice It is not a dialogue or discussion it is collecting advice - go and find another partner and repeat the process
Make a personal action plan for yourself: what is the one thing you will work on and how. Make a smart improvement plan.
Share your personal plan with us in class. We will evaluate it against the measurable and observable criteria.
