Our workshop solution is for your team members who need to understand and improve their executive presence. Built on current research and practical best practices, the program empowers participants to make immediate and sustainable progress in bridging their gaps.
And, for many leaders, executive presence is an important factor in receiving promotions during their careers. One study has shown that executive presence can account for a little over one-fourth of what it takes to receive a promotion . Executive presence also has a major impact on how leaders are perceived; for example, 60% of executives agree that sounding uneducated negatively impacts how people see you.
Our facilitators are experienced executive coaches with deep experience in Executive Presence and creating a dynamic and safe learning environment. Following pre-work, program sessions generally last between four and eight hours.
Participants’ progress can be accelerated by adding 1:1 coaching sessions to support rapid development and sustainable change and reinforce workshop learnings. Coaching is also an option for individual growth and development with Executive Presence as an area of focus.
After training, participants can see immediate results when strategies and best practices are implemented. Over time, consistent practices drive dramatic positive changes in an organization’s leaders’ ability to influence, communicate, and deliver results.
