DCPA2441. The Changing Psychology of Influence: How to overcome resistance to move your ideas forward in the modern era

If you’ve ever found yourself facing resistance to your ideas – you’re not alone. Even when we have a great idea that will affect enormous change, we don’t always get the reaction – or action – we’re hoping for.

That’s because we spend the majority of our energy making our ideas and changes more compelling, more interesting, more attractive — pouring on the fuel — that we rarely discover the frictions that are working against us, and all humans have them

In this interactive session, join 2x TEDx and Global Keynote Speaker, Author, and Workplace Performance Expert, Henna Pryor, to uncover and explore the 4 specific reasons why people resist change, and more importantly, concrete strategies to overcome them so we can move our ideas, initiatives, team members, prospects, and mission forward.

Learning Objectives:

• Shift away from problem-solving to a more valuable strategy
• Understand how being the “expert” is hurting your influence instead of helping
• Position your idea from several new angles that increase trust and get the green light you need for people to say yes
