We’ve been presented with the idea that influencers are the ones with influence…have you bought into this idea? Join JC live every day this week to claim the influence you possess and learn how to put it in action.
Every day this week, JC Lippold will look at some tactical and practical ways that we can exercise our influence. Who are those people who are closest to you? Are you exercising that influence for good?
Consider the opportunity cost of taking that moment to influence someone else's day. Gain more influence, gain more influence. Not little meaning non impactful, but little things where you go. Consider those five people you wrote down. Have a good Monday.
Well, happy Monday, everybody. My name is JC Lippold. I normally jump onto Cadre live on Sunday evenings, but every day this week, you're going to see my face popping up sometime throughout the day. I'm the director of people and partnerships here at Cadre, and this week I wanted to spend some time, um, talking about the idea or the action, the activity of exercising your influence. You know, we live in the culture right now of, um, of influencers, right? People who have, um, apparently influence, um, which I think creates the assumption that others then don't.
If there are influencers, then there must be non influencers. And in reality, that's not true right now. Me, if you don't know me, I have very little influence over you, even though I'm on the screen, even though I'm the one who has face and voice right now. But until we form a connection, until we know one another, my influence is very minimal. Happy morning, Marisa. Good to see you. Nice to see you. Luke, he who influences me and, Marisa, you influence me. I know that you were cooking this weekend.
Why? Because I care about you. So then I check in, and then I see you're opening up Gavin Cason's cookbook to go ahead and cook. Right. I check in on those people who are in my influence. So today, I simply want to pose the idea. I want to plant the seed on. Who are those people who are closest to you? Hey, speak wonder. Nice to see you. Happy Monday. Right? Now, maybe grab a notepad or open up your phone and type down, write down those five people who you would say, here are the people who are closest to me, and then throughout this week, consider the influence you have over them, and that's.
That may make you go, whoa. Whether you like it or not, everybody, you are a very influential person. The way you talk about yourself, the way you carry yourself, the way you deal with adversity, the way you seek connection and assistance and help from other people that has influence on the people who are closest to you. So every day this week, we are going to look at some tactical and practical ways that we can exercise our influence and maybe, simply, maybe start to consider how the way that we show up in the world has a great impact on those people around us.
Because I'll tell you, and I'm a speak the truth quickly person. I have never been influenced by an influencer. Why? Because most of the time, influencers are spending a lot of time caring about their influence. Experts, a lot of the time are caring about their expertise. Who do you care about what do you care about and the what. How does it connect to the who? I think we can benefit a lot from inviting the people who live on the high shelves back into the world where there are people and faces and responses.
Because Melissa and noofie, lover, sue and speak wonderful. And Luke and Marisa, I know it. There are people who feel your presence, who hear your voice, and those are the people who you have a lot of influence over. Are you exercising that influence for good? Let's leave it right there. Today. Tomorrow I'll be back at. One moment, please. m. Central standard time. So between now and then, consider those five people. Speak wonder. You're ahead of the game if you don't see the notes right now. Speak wonder.
Just said this nudges me into a desire to send encouragement cards to my five people. Absolutely. Little things. Not little meaning non impactful, not little meaning easy, but little things where you go. I'm going to take a moment and consider the opportunity cost of taking that moment to influence someone else's day. Our culture doesn't encourage us to do that. It encourages us to go this way. Gain more influence, gain more influence. Gain more influence, and then everybody will follow you. I've never known that to work.
I haven't. Hey, speak wonder. Look what just happened. Cafe Marisa just said yes. Speak wonder. Great idea. Speak wonder. You just influenced Marisa with your idea. Hmm. What a beautiful way to start the week, y'all. Thank you for influencing me. Thank you for making a connection. So now we have greater influence over each other. m. Central standard time, as we continue to consider how we exercise our influence. Have a good Monday. Bye.
