This is especially important in situations requiring leading without formal authority. Often thought of as something innate, influencing is an interrelated set of skills that can be learned and developed. It is the impression you make on others that is a key factor in influence. While 'Professional Presence' is often difficult to define, it seems easy to spot when you see it in another person - confidence, positive body language, professional appearance, and vocal expressiveness.Professional presence encompasses people's perceptions of everything from character and intelligence to ability to contribute to the organization. People who want to be influential, work at creating a positive 'Professional Presence' in the minds of other people.

Giant's Shoulders - Making Project Connections All projects are a journey to towards a goal. All projects share the characteristics of being a temporary endeavor with a uniqueness of scope or environment that makes them very different from operations type work. The temporariness of the project requires that we manage time - that valuable resource that will consume and surprise us if we don't manage it well. A project schedule is our representation of future time - or future memories - that we build together to provide us with confidence, guidance and measuring points along the journey. A well-built schedule requires three key ingredients: An agreed scope representing the requirements of the stakeholders Estimates of task durations by the performers Solid connections between the tasks - Dependencies and sequencing What you will learn: This session and exercise will focus on that third element - the connections. It is no more or less important than the other two. However it does often provide an opportunity for conversations that can be referred to as 'storming' - in the Tuckman/Jensen model of Team Development (Forming/Storming/Norming/Performing/Adjourning). The game is designed to provide an opportunity to practice and improve our ability to identify connections/ associations/links between famous individuals from the Arts, Science and Craft worlds. We can use the same skill and ability to identify connections/ dependencies/ sequences between our project tasks.
