Author: Andrew Greaves

Nov 29, 2012 - Heather Meeker Green, Managing Director of Accordence, was invited to speak at the Women’s Infrastructure Network (WIN) breakfast briefing. Hosted by Macquarie in their Manhattan office, Ms. Meeker Green presented on the topic of "Influencing Without Authority":

You have all of the responsibility but none of the authority! How often have you thought this when you need to influence someone that you don’t manage nor have authority over. Yet they are a key resource in getting your work accomplished. How do you help them help you achieve your goal? How do you influence without feeling like you are coercing? What can you do to improve the outcomes of that conversation? Learn strategies for influencing when you don’t have authority.

WIN is a forum designed for women in the infrastructure sector to help facilitate connections and networking, exchange ideas, and help shape the infrastructure agenda. For more information on WIN and future events, please visit www.womensinfrastructure.net
