Influence is often misunderstood. It’s not about being the loudest voice in the room or convincing someone to do something they don’t want to do. At its core, real influence is about connection: understanding what matters to people, speaking their language, and building enough trust that they’re open to your ideas. Whether you’re leading a team, selling a concept, or trying to shift someone’s thinking, influence starts with empathy and ends with clear, credible communication.
This session explores how influence really works psychologically, emotionally, and practically. We’ll look at tools used in negotiation, human intelligence (HUMINT), and behavioural science, and break them down into simple, usable strategies for everyday conversations. Participants will learn how to read their audience, structure their message effectively, and respond to resistance in a way that keeps dialogue moving forward.
Importantly, this isn’t about tricks or tactics. It’s about learning to be more intentional and skilful in how you show up, communicate, and lead so that when you speak, people listen, and when you ask, they act. Whether you’re trying to win support for a new idea or simply be more effective in your day-to-day interactions, this session will help you influence with clarity, confidence, and integrity.
Your people will learn:
- Identify what drives others’ behaviour and tailor their approach accordingly
- Communicate ideas with clarity, empathy, and strategic intent
- Apply practical tools to influence ethically and effectively
- Manage resistance without derailing the conversation
- Lead with greater confidence and credibility

“I liked the flow of the session and the content the speaker covered, it really made me think about the way I have been feeling while working from home and that I haven’t been alone in that and the speaker sharing ways to deal with things for both individual and for your team.” The National Lottery Community Fund
“This is one of the best webinar’s on returning to work I’ve heard and certainly made me think about the different types of people and their reactions. The session was really informative. The speaker was excellent.” Cushman & Wakefield
“Really well run session on what can be a very challenging topic to talk about. It gave people the opportunity to share if they wanted to, but without any pressure to do so if they don’t want to. I personally learned a lot which is helpful from a personal and a leadership perspective. Thanks for running this session, it was really insightful and valuable.” British Business Bank
“Just the right balance of “theory” and application, with useful real life examples. I loved that there were so many practical takeaways from the session which I can use to make a difference. Refreshing to hear the benefits of making small changes rather than aiming for wholesale transformation! Good to listen to a knowledgeable, experienced and engaging speaker – thank you!” Danone
“I think the session delivered the same key messages in multiple ways which is quite a powerful and useful technique. It explored stressors, spotting triggers and the impact on us, how to recognise these and deal with more effectively, protecting ourselves from burnout.” The National Lottery Community Fund
“The session was amazing and I think it would be a great required course for employees in January. We’re all dealing with a lot and her perspective on how personality types respond to the past 2 years was so insightful. I think our return to office would be smoother if all employees were required to hear this presentation and gain some perspective that the same employee that left in March 2019 is not the same employee returning in 2022.” BNY Mellon
“89% of leaders who engaged in a 6-month Feel Good training programme reported that they were able to use the programme to become better leaders, with 84% building greater trust with their colleagues.” Sopra Steria
“500% increase to sign-ups to Johnson Matthey’s wellbeing initiative with Feel Good Engagement.” Johnson Matthey
“The workshop was 100% packed with useful information. […] I came out of it with not only inspiration, but defined action points for myself. Amazing. Thank you so much!” BNY Mellon
“As always, we’ve loved working with you and turning to you to embrace our crazy ideas with top level speakers and presenters!” Oracle
