- Influence vs. Authority - Building Relationships - Servant Leadership
🚨 Why Building Your Ability to Influence is THE Most Important Skill for Your Career 🚨
💡 Influence > Authority. Every. Single. Day.
Leadership isn’t about titles, positions, or the size of your office. It's about how you influence others.
People don’t follow you because they have to—they follow you because they want to. Because they trust you, respect you, and feel connected to you.
Sure, you can lead with authority, but that only takes you so far. Influence is what lasts.
Here’s the secret: 🔑 Influence is built through relationships. It's about genuinely caring for others, understanding their needs, and helping them succeed. Sounds like Servant Leadership? You bet it does. 💼
The best part? You don’t need a title to lead. Start where you are: ✅ Own your role.
✅ Be responsible for the people around you and the results you achieve together.
✅ Prioritise serving over managing.
The best leaders build influence by showing up every day and making a difference in people’s lives. 🌱
Focus on character, relationships, and service. The rest will follow. 🙌
