Effective leaders know how to encourage others to willingly, even enthusiastically, support their ideas and initiatives. No matter what your job responsibilities may be, the ability to establish rapport quickly, communicate your ideas successfully, and convince others to have confidence in you will decrease your frustration and enable you to achieve your goals.
