Having worked through the content in this module, you should now have a good understanding of the different influence tactics, principles of persuasion, and bases of power you can use during an influence attempt. 
Considering what you have learnt, choose a situation (either from your own work or study experience or a situation you can imagine taking place in the future) that you can only change making use of lateral or upward influence. (For example, you might want to ask your boss to give you some time off to focus on completing this course). Briefly describe the situation, then apply the theory in this module to the situation, indicating which three influence tactics, principles of persuasion, or bases of power you will use to achieve the desired outcome. 
You can select any three influence tactics, principles of persuasion, or bases of power covered in this module (e.g. you can focus on three tactics from one category, or you can choose one tactic from each category). Note that the rubric awards marks for choosing widely. For each of the three tactics, principles, or power bases mentioned, provide a rationale for why you think it would be effective in the given situation. 
Your submission should be between 550 and 600 words in length (+- 20 words).
