You Don’t Need to be the Boss to Influence

I just read Influence Without Authority: How to Get People to Listen Without Being the Boss from Bri Chapman.

Most people think influence comes from a title. From being the person who approves budgets, signs off on decisions, or sits at the top of an org chart.

But that’s not how it actually works.

And I can pretty much second what she writes there! Not just the quote but also the stepts she’s mentioning there. I was often in a same position: not being the boss but making things work.

Og course it doesn’t work always. But I am surprised how often it just worked in the past. I’d recommend reading it! https://www.brichapman.com/p/how-to-build-influence-without-authority
