You’ve been asked to lead a culture change initiative at your company. But there’s a catch—its success hinges on the cooperation of several organizations across your company over whom you have no formal authority. You’re facing this type of challenge more often because the majority of culture change initiatives now involve multiple functions within companies. Leading and influencing without authority becomes a critical and often necessary skill as you need to get things done through partners inside and outside your organizations. This panel will explore how leaders in various sized companies approach leading and influencing without authority and why a more lateral style of leadership is better suited for creating valuable change in your organization.
