Influence for Engineers Beyond Networking

Bailey Elaine Laban
S7
Abstract

A practical system for making your technical expertise understood, building relationships before you need them, and getting support for your ideas without becoming the loudest person in the room. Bring the technical proposal that keeps getting pushed aside, the conversation you’ve been avoiding, or the idea you can’t seem to get traction on. Learn how to turn your expertise into a clear case for action, build the relationships that help move it forward, and turn the connections you’ve made today into meaningful next steps. You'll leave with a handful of Bailey's "unconventional sales nuggets" and a repeatable system you can use to scale your ideas.
