A leader might apply several methods of influence:13 Pressure or directive method Leaders use this method to express a specific demand, with either an implied or explicit suspense. For a trained soldier, hearing the words \u201chit the dirt, incoming!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>from a person in authority or someone familiar with the sound of incoming artillery usually generates an immediate response. No one needs to discuss a suspense date or how fast the person should fall to the ground. For a trained healthcare professional, the announcement of a code over a loudspeaker generates a similar response. Authoritative request With this influence technique, someone in a position of authority uses that authority as a basis for a request. It usually involves specific requirements and completion deadlines, with negative repercussions for unmet achievement.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf your son cuts his cast off one more time before the end of this month, his arm will not heal and he\u2019ll never throw a baseball again,\u201d the orthopedic surgeon might say. In the army, anything a drill sergeant says to a new trainee is an example of an authoritative request. Exchange In this technique, the leader provides some desired action or item in trade for compliance with the request. A cardiovascular surgeon might offer a series of lectures on heart disease in exchange for the donation of money for a new CV clinic.<\/p>\n<p>A commander might promise a four-day pass for all those who contribute to passing a maintenance inspection. A personal appeal This method might be used when a leader asks a follower to comply with a request based on loyalty or friendship, while at the same time knowing it is the right thing to do.<\/p>\n<p>A family practice physician who knows a patient is not taking prescribed medication might tell the individual he feels concerned that his failure to comply could result in added complications, and that the patient will need to find another doctor if he continues to ignore the prescription. A colonel might remind his troops that he is asking them to accomplish a tough mission because of their oath of allegiance to defend the country.<\/p>\n<p>Rational persuasion This technique requires the leader to provide data or logical arguments as to how the request relates to the objective. In this method, the leader must provide evidence in the form of research findings, strong anecdotes, or illustrations of what has worked in the past. All armor officers know the maxim, \u201cDon\u2019t use tanks in urban environments without the support of infantry,\u201d because the directive has behind it a host of data, historical anecdotes, and negative illustrations that describe what happens when someone violates this rule.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>Publishing Notice: This book is not intended to replace a one-on-one relationship with a qualified healthcare professional but as a sharing of knowledge and information from the research and experience of the author.
