In many organisations, influence rarely comes from formal authority alone. Decisions are shaped by trust, informal networks, competing interests, and invisible dynamics beneath the surface. When progress stalls, many professionals instinctively double down on logic, data, or persuasion.
Yet influence is rarely just a rational exercise — it is relational, political, and deeply human. In this session, you learn how to read stakeholder landscapes more accurately, understand what truly drives different players, and adapt your influence strategy without compromising your integrity.
You’ll leave with practical ways to map influence, build credibility across diverse stakeholders, and move complex decisions forward with greater precision and less friction.
During the expert session, Meg engages the audience through interactive exercises using the Mentimeter app, Q&A sessions, and live demonstrations.
It is interactive, and the block above says exactly how for this session. Nobody has to speak up who does not want to: the chat and the polls carry most of it, and the questions can come in anonymously.
In many organisations, influence rarely comes from formal authority alone. Decisions are shaped by trust, informal networks, competing interests, and invisible dynamics beneath the surface. It is built for a general working audience: no prior knowledge is assumed, and people who already know the subject get the research and the practical side rather than an introduction.
It runs 45 min / 15 min: the talk, then live questions. All you do is pick a date. We brief Meg, produce the session, host and moderate it, run the Q&A, and send you the report within an hour of the end.
A team, a department, an employee network or every single employee at once, with no cap and no per-seat price. It runs inside your own Microsoft Teams, Zoom or Google Meet, or on a branded page we build. No integration, no login, no company device or e-mail.
The session is delivered in English. You can add high accuracy live subtitles in 8, 16 or 24 languages, so everyone follows in their own. That is a paid option, priced by the number of languages you need.
No, and that is by design. There is nothing to install, nothing to integrate and no connection to your systems, so there is nothing for IT to validate: we join your own Teams, Zoom or Meet as a guest speaker, or we host a page and your people open a link. No software, no accounts, and no data of yours that we can reach. It is why hundreds of companies, among them some of the largest technology and financial firms in the world, were able to start within a day.
We never receive or hold personal data about your employees. Because the session runs in your own environment, attendance and identity stay with you, and what we report back is aggregated: numbers, ratings and survey answers, not people. That is also why IT approval usually takes minutes rather than weeks.
You keep the recording and can share it internally. You also get attendance over time, participant ratings for the content and the speaker, the survey answers, and the topics your people asked for next.
