Signification
To use one's power to affect an outcome.
Contexte culturel
In Danish corporate culture, 'making influence felt' is often subtle. It's about 'stakeholder management' rather than giving orders. Danish diplomats are known for 'gøre deres indflydelse gældende' by being experts in technical details, which gives them power in committees. The concept of 'medbestemmelse' (co-determination) means that even employees are expected to 'gøre deres indflydelse gældende' regarding their work conditions. In the 'Rigsfællesskab' (The Unity of the Realm), these nations work hard to 'gøre deres indflydelse gældende' in foreign policy matters that affect them.
