- Present a model of power and influence as shown in Figure 8-1.
- Provide an overview of essentially ethical and honest influence tactics as outlined in the text and in Table 8-1.

- Recommendations – Propose influence tactics to increase the organization’s effectiveness while remaining honest and ethical.
