The ability to influence is an essential leadership skill and a core competency needed in every role. It is not possible to move others towards action without influencing skills.

Those that have the most impact as an influencer do not rely on a position or title for their influence. They build groups of people that can carry their message to others. The message can carry far and wide when influence is utilized effectively. In today’s world, there are many opportunities, as well as challenges, for HR to influence individuals and groups. Influence must be continuously honed and demonstrated through relationships built upon trust, credibility, and authenticity.
