How can leaders influence positively their teams?

Influencing others is essentially an art that works wonders if done in the right way. It helps an individual indirectly grow, adapt and develop. On a daily basis this is a negotiation as we tend to influence or get influenced by the people around us. As a leader, manager or a general employee in a workplace in order to climb up the corporate leader or get people on your side to support you on a certain, Influencing is very important.

This begins with only GIVING. We have to give before we ask. If we don't put in the effort, we won't get anything back in return. As a leader, offering your time mentoring, coaching, somebody creating opportunities for people to grow, right, as an individual contributor, even you can also use this tactic by offering your help on a project or helping out a colleague. Another important one is to lead by example. If you want your team to be better at time management, then show them how you manage your time be the person that is explicit about their time management. So people are inspired by that. You want your team to have more transparent communication. Well, that starts with you, being transparent in your communication with them. Lastly build trust. The more people trust you, the better you will be able to positively influence them and create great work cultures.
