SUMMARY:Influencing without Authority class
DESCRIPTION:Pre-registration required. For full course details (including location) or to register for this class\, log into the UC Learning Center. \nThis 4-hour workshop explores the primary strategies of influence\, reciprocity\, communicating to influence\, and influencing styles. The participant will learn how to select the most appropriate strategy for the circumstances. \nThe ability to exercise influence without authority is one of the most important skills of an effective professional. Effectively exercising influence\, even when one may not have the formal authority to mandate action\, is a challenge many face. Whether working in a matrix organization or leading a cross functional team\, the goal is to contribute one’s best\, support the organization\, and ensure goals are met. It is important to understand the nature of power and influence in the organization\, understand personal sources of influence\, and know how to leverage personal political power. Successful professionals build networks of relationships with stakeholders and influencers. This course introduces the skills necessary to employ these interpersonal and leadership skills and to manage the often complex relationship dynamics of the workplace.

SUMMARY:Webinar: Overview of UC's systemwide travel program
DESCRIPTION:UC’s Systemwide Travel Program provides comprehensive rates and benefits for all UC employees through a secure web portal\, Connexxus. UC-negotiated rates and benefits can only be accessed by contracted travel agencies and Connexxus provides access to these agencies. Savings garnered by the travel program can help stretch departmental funds further and perhaps send more students on research trips\, extend faculty time in the field or reallocate funds towards other quality patient care programs. \nThe Central Travel Office and the Business Resource Center are hosting this presentation to provide an overview of the travel program and the Connexxus portal\, and to answer any travel-related questions. \nFor those who can’t attend in person: \nwww.readytalk.com\nDial in at: 1-866-740-1260\nAccess code: 9870941 \nQuestions?
