Four Ways of Seeing
See how key stakeholders see you – and how to turn adversaries into allies.
Four Ways of Seeing is a simple but remarkably revealing technique that can yield valuable insights into the way competitors, customers, and other key influencers view your company, your industry, and one another. It can be used in conjunction with Influencer Engineering™ to figure out how to turn strong opposition into weak opposition, weak opposition into weak support and weak support into strong support for your strategies and plans. It can also be used by planners formulate strategies that address the challenges and opportunities presented by these key influencers. Finally, Four Ways of Seeing can be used after a plan has been formulated to ensure it takes into account the sensitivities and expectations of all of the stakeholders.
"The learn and repeat structure is very helpful. Many providers of online courses just show slides, here you have a hands on approach that deepens what you just saw."
