In this current environment where our ways of working have been impacted by remote and hybrid work arrangements, influence skills have emerged as more important than ever before. Wharton Professor Cade Massey led this webinar, originally hosted by Ivy Exec, to discuss:

– how you can think about building your facility with a wide range of influence tools to help with these efforts
– a range of topics and core influence skills needed to thrive within the current workplace
– ideas and concepts that will help you examine how you can adjust your influence behaviors to better influence in your present workplace setting.
