Course Description:

The Influence Style Indicator (ISI)™ is an assessment designed to measure an individual’s preferred style influence during communication. Successful professionals understand the importance of know how to influence effectively.  It can be a distinguishing factor in collaboration, building relationships and getting things done. The ISI™ identifies preferred, secondary and underutilized styles. 

The ISI™ maps five unique ways to influence—Rationalizing, Asserting, Negotiating, Inspiring and Bridging.  These styles are against a backdrop of two orientations:  Advocating and Uniting. Professionals learn the significance of using each style to influence when in different situations.  The ISI™ helps to sharpen skills, understand diversity of approach, and the power of communicating in specific ways to reach the listener.
