The thin line between influence and coercion

In this episode, Laurence Methot discusses the concept of influence and when it crosses the line into coercion.

You'll hear about:

  • influence and constructive approaches
  • the negative effects of coercion, manipulation, and control in influencing others
  • you can gain more awareness to influence positively and know when to stop or flag when you feel coerced.

I'd love to hear your thoughts on influence. Email me at laurence@thegrowthfuel.com with your questions, comments, and feedback, and I'll reply.
