Executive Presence: Communicating with Impact
Elevate your executive presence and perform effectively at the highest levels.
A compelling and commanding executive presence sets leaders in advanced management positions apart from the rest. Lacking executive presence can hold you back; possessing it can propel your career development forward. Executive presence isn’t an innate gift but rather a leadership skill set waiting to be developed.

Timely content will be covered during this virtual program including strategies for enhancing your presence during video conference.
