The Art of Influencing and Empowering Others – Christy Whitman

If you really want to affect a change – big or small, in your own life or in the life of another – it is essential to master the art of influence and empowerment.

So, how do you do this?

It begins with the act of listening. The single most important gift we can offer anyone is the gift of being heard; listening is the cornerstone of every relationship.

Most of us have a running dialog and a perpetual stream of fleeting thoughts running through our heads that prevents us from really listening. Influencing another requires us to compartmentalize our own internal chatter in order to receive the communication of the person who is speaking.

Receiving the communication of another person is more than simply registering their words. It’s listening for the nuances that reveal the emotions behind those words. Often the things people don’t say is more significant than the things they do. If we are preoccupied with our own thoughts or have formed a foregone conclusion about what someone else is saying, we miss these subtleties completely.

Two important things occur when we listen to another without distractions, preconceptions or judgments.

1) We forge an intimate connection that goes directly to the intention behind the words being spoken; and

2) We open up a space for others to imagine new possibilities and conceive a new vision for their lives.

Creating a vision is the first – and most important – step we can take toward fulfilling it. The next step is generating the certainty within ourselves that we have what it takes to turn that vision into reality.

Through the Quantum Success Coaching Academy, which I founded in 2008, I have taught women and men all over the world to understand and apply the universal principles that govern the process of manifesting the visions they hold for their own lives – and how to facilitate this process for their clients. QSCA coaches have mastered the art of influence and empowerment. They know that influencing others is not about employing a specific technique (although the yearlong program teaches them plenty). They are naturally influential because every one of them has broken through limiting beliefs – whether in the area of their finances, their relationships, their physical well-being, or their careers – and are living a more deliberate, inspired life then they previously thought possible.

The Quantum Success Coaching Academy teaches a proven process for achieving extraordinary results for both you and your clients.

Thousands of people around the world are using the universal principles I teach in my coaching program to transform their lives, the lives of others, and earning a six figure income while doing so? Click here to find out how you can too.
