Whenever we speak with or write to someone we are influencing them in some way. Understanding our own influencing strategies will help us prepare for a more effective encounter with others. Ask yourself these eight questions: 1. What are my influencing strengths? Weaknesses? 2. How do I make a personal connection with people? 3. How do I stay focused when I become distracted while speaking with someone? 4. What type of open-ended questions do I ask? 5. How do I interpret body language? How do I am right in my interpretation? 6. How do I go about understanding my audience before I speak? 7. How do I express my values with authenticity? 8. How do I find common ground when I disagree with others?
