Lead With
and Inspire Confidence

Executive presence is about more than attracting attention—it’s the ability to use gestures, gaze, voice and other small details to prove your ideas are worth listening to. It’s not enough to say you’re a leader, you need to show it.

Don’t send your teams mixed signals, whether consciously or unconsciously, through faulty facial expressions, body language or speech patterns. In this engaging and interactive program, learn to boost cooperation through techniques, communication tools, and compelling presentations. Turbo-charge your social interactions to speed towards the next level of your career. 

Enhance your executive presence and build your personal brand by creating memorable business relationships with everyone you meet. As part of the program, attendees are offered the opportunity to prepare video follow-ups and receive personalized feedback from the instructor to help strengthen their virtual presence.
