Developing Executive Presence: Unleashing Your Leadership Potential
“Executive presence is about your ability to inspire confidence — inspiring confidence in your subordinates that you’re the leader they want to follow, inspiring confidence among peers that you’re capable and reliable and, most importantly, inspiring confidence among senior leaders that you have the potential for great achievements.”- Forbes
The Program is a transformative day-long program designed specifically for Director-level and C-suite leaders to enhance their executive presence and unleash their leadership potential. While most available executive presence programs emphasize on image management and outer personality traits development to develop and enhance executive presence, in this program the immersive experience will guide program participants in developing a powerful executive presence by focusing on essential factors such as leadership mindset, effective communication (verbal and non-verbal), gravitas, authenticity, inner values and essence.
In this program, participants learn what it takes to develop and master their “presence” as a leader. It is interactive and powerful, and participants walk away with insight and tools to help establish a high level of personal charisma, confidence, clarity, and impact. The program also delves on other critical skills that leaders can cultivate to communicate and influence their teams.
Through interactive sessions, insightful discussions & reflections participants will learn to harness their unique strengths to exude their executive presence and elevate their leadership impact.
