Navigating the art of influence, this week, I delve into the delicate balance between being an influencer and being influenced. Drawing from recent experiences onboarding three new clients who share the same enneagram type, I explore the challenges faced by driven, goal-oriented individuals. I also discussed how energy in a meeting can be shaped by mood and how to maintain composure amidst differing opinions.

 

Anecdotes from my journey allow us to explore strategies for emotional intelligence thoroughly. I share insights that have shaped my approach, from empathic tendencies in reading a room to overcoming nervousness through grounding techniques.

 

“In moments of contradiction, breathe, settle into your groundedness, and influence the direction of the room.” ~Mark J. Silverman
