Brief summary of show:

Think back on great managers you've worked for. They were probably people that would influence you to follow them wherever they went or you kept in touch with them as you've moved jobs. That's Taylor Howard. She's a Retail Operations Manager for H and M and she will teach you subtle ways to build influence. We talk about how she intently tries to learn about people on her team and strategies on growing influence without specifically trying for it. Influence will sell people on you over the longterm and Taylor is a great example of how! She sure influenced me to ask her to come on!
