There are several ways by which a professional can influence’s his/ her influence at the workplace. This influence has clear value, say the experts. One way to do this is by forging connections along the way. Before one tries to persuade others to follow a certain path, the person needs to have enough business intelligence on the overall picture. The pro will also need to take care of his/ her body language and the tone of speech. Nothing will ever succeed, without a genuine nurturing of one’s skill sets, so best is to develop expertise in some area. A strategy needs to be mapped, around which all other activities may take place. Ultimately, it is important to respect what others want, and give them the same. The use of “I” has to be restricted, replaced more by “We”. One has to make it clear how others’ views are also valued.
