Why the Influence Management training in the canton of Jura

The canton of Jura lives from watchmaking subcontracting, machine tools, medtech and a dense fabric of family SMEs around Delémont, Porrentruy and the Franches-Montagnes. Many companies are still run by their founders or their descendants.

In a watchmaking subcontractor or a Jura family business, many results depend on people who do not report to you: credibility, alliances and argument replace formal authority.

On-site organisation: Sessions in Delémont, Porrentruy, Saignelégier or on your premises; short formats compatible with workshop schedules.

For cross-functional managers, project leaders and experts who need commitment without hierarchical authority: map stakeholders, build credibility, frame arguments around each person’s interests and create lasting alliances.

Exercises for Jura are adapted to participants’ responsibilities and situations from their organisation.

What the influence Management Training in the canton of Jura programme covers

The influence Management Training in the canton of Jura programme is designed for managers, executives and key contributors who want to turn influence management into everyday practice. Content is built around real situations from your organisation rather than generic case studies, so that each session connects directly with the decisions your teams face in the canton of Jura.

Core themes typically include: Stakeholder mapping; Credibility and legitimacy; Alliances and persuasion. Each theme is adapted after a scoping conversation with your HR team and the sponsoring manager, so that the programme addresses the gaps you actually observe.

A method grounded in research and practice

Our approach combines short theoretical inputs drawn from peer-reviewed research, practical exercises, role plays and structured feedback. Participants work on their own cases, test new behaviours in a safe setting and leave with concrete commitments they can apply the following week.

Between sessions, short assignments help anchor what has been learned. A follow-up review a few weeks later measures what has changed in practice and identifies where further support is useful.
