Executive Presence Coaching
Executive Presence is contextual and involves being aligned with your stakeholders and the business imperative. Coaching can help you determine which qualities need to be highlighted and how you can develop them further. Platform skills play a part in influencing, engaging and inspiring others but your stakeholders will observe whether you ‘walk the talk’ too. The quality of day to day interactions is key as they form impressions of your leadership brand and assessment of your effectiveness.
