Description
In today's business culture, there are circumstances in which a person who possesses no formal authority is required to accomplish a task or complete a project. Perhaps you will recognize a problem or a business need, and you will assume responsibility to resolve the issue. Or your manager may direct you to complete a task in which you will need to solicit the help of others in order to complete the task. This course offers strategies to build relationships, identify the key people you will need to help complete your project, ask them for the assistance that you need, and orchestrate the process of moving your project forward to completion.
