THE GIFT OF INFLUENCE

Tommy Spaulding

How Great Leaders Create Life-Changing and Lasting Impact - in Organizations, Others, and Themselves

An empowering manifesto on how to use influence to make a lasting impact on everyone we meet, from chance encounters to work colleagues to our closest relationships - by the New York Times bestselling author of The Heart-Led Leader

Researchers believe that the average person will influence up to 80,000 people - that is 2.8 people daily - both positively and negatively over the course of their lifetime. If we paid attention to this fact, what would we do differently? Would we lead differently? Would our interactions with family, friends, and colleagues be different? Would we take more time to focus more directly on the people in front of us and less on social media and cell phones?
Tommy Spaulding believes the answer is yes...

Spaulding addresses this fresh topic of influence an impact in a practical guide that is equally compelling and deeply personal. He explores how we can be more mindful and effective in wielding the influence each of us has over others - in our careers, in our everyday interactions, and in the relationships we cultivate over a lifetime.
Broken into five parts, THE GIFT OF INFLUENCE features:
Part I: LEAD: Lift, Embrace, Act, Devote
Part II: The First "I" of Influence: Interest
Part III: The Second "I" of Influence: Investment
Part IV: The Third "I" of Influence: Intent
Part V: The Circle of Influence

Sharing stories from exceptional leaders he has worked with over the years, from entrepreneurs who have made an impact far beyond their businesses to a teacher who changed the lives of thirty students with one simple lesson, Spaulding gives us a simple recipe for turning transactions into interactions. A manifesto on the everyday actions we can take to make a positive impact on the people we love and lead, THE GIFT OF INFLUENCE offers more than "thoughts and prayers" to those in need, and transforming the lives each of us touch as we may our way through the world.

Tommy Spaulding is the founder and president of the Tommy Spaulding Leadership Institute, a leadership-development training organization based in Denver, and the New York Times bestselling author of It's Not Just Who You Know and The Heart-Led Leader. The former president and CEO of the global leadership organization Up with People, Tommy consults, trains and speaks to more than one hundred businesses and organizations across the country each year. He resides in Denver, Colorado.
