Influence

Influence is the cognitive ability to understand; communication skill to inspire and persuade, or “can do'' attitude to motivate.

We live in a diverse global society with a multigenerational workforce, multipolar knowledge centers, multi-cultural wisdom, and multidimensional innovation, etc. 

Global professionals today have to continue sharing their viewpoint about things or events happening in their surroundings, their perspective of future global society; their roles on making desired changes, their professional strengths & weakness, as well as how to team up for building competitive global team for co-solving common problems at the worldwide base and developing professional competencies.

Influence Interdependence and hyperdiversity are the very characteristics of the organization. To unify common beliefs, bridge differences, and explore the emerging trends, the management needs to embrace diverse viewpoints, open up the tensions to ensure that things can be resolved, and take an interdisciplinary approach to drive changes, for reaching a state of unity and harmony.

Influencing In the hyper-connected and interdependent global society, with overwhelming growth of information and shortened knowledge lifecycle, in order to reach the state of knowledge proficiency and spread expert influence, it is important to identify and close the gap between knowledge and insight.

Influence The fierce competition and continuous disruptions are part of the new normal. The new paradigm that is emerging is organic, holistic, vibrant, energetic, fluid, and innovative, in relationship with its environment, and above all enhances the dignity of the creative human spirit. Leadership is not controlled by command structure or overly rigid organizational boundaries. Being an influential leader means giving people confidence on where to go and how to get there, supporting them and also stretching them to unleash their full potential.

Influencing Global world becomes over-complex, information is growing exponentially. The business world we live in is in the paradigm shift to global advancement. The boundary of knowledge domains is blurred, cross-disciplinary knowledge is powerful to solve many of today’s over-complex and interdependent problems.

Influence Influence is the cognitive ability to understand; communication skill to inspire and persuade, or “can do'' attitude to motivate. Regardless of which stage you are at the professional growth cycle, forethoughtful leaders or professionals should continue to learn, innovate or coach to deepen their influence.

The “Future of CIO” Blog has reached 10 million page views with about 11,000+ blog postings in 59+ different categories of leadership, management, strategy, digitalization, change/talent, etc. The content richness is not for its own sake, but to convey the vision and share the wisdom. Blogging is not about writing, but about thinking; it’s not just about WHAT to say, but about WHY to say, and HOW to say it. It reflects the color and shade of your thought patterns, and it indicates the peaks and curves of your thinking waves. Unlike pure entertainment, quality and professional content takes time for digesting, contemplation and engaging, and therefore, it takes time to attract the "hungry minds" and the "deep souls." It’s the journey to amplify your voice, deepen your digital footprints, and match your way for human progression.
