Executive Presence

EXECUTIVE PRESENCE

A People Results' Workshop

 

The Challenges

How am I being perceived by those who matter inside and outside my organisation?

Do I project myself as a leader of projects and people?

Am I doing and saying the right things?

These questions are "top of mind" for many talented managers who wish to take their careers to the senior levels of their organisation.

Have these questions and many others answered at an Executive Presence workshop.  You may like to attend one of our public workshops which are scheduled regularly throughout the year.  Please contact People Results on enquiries@peopleresults.com.au for dates and more details.

The next 2012 Executive Presence public workshop date is - TBA.

OVERVIEW 

Highly-effective senior leaders have a different set of skills to their technical and professional skills.  They have “executive presence,” which is how to be perceived as a leader by those who matter inside and outside your organisation.  In fact, everything we do and say is absorbed and interpreted by others who decide whether we fit into their framework of leadership, or not. 

Gaining executive presence is a prerequisite for anyone who aspires to a senior leadership role in their organisation. 

The Executive Presence Workshop is stimulating, interactive and practical.   Participants gain a keen appreciation of the strengths and abilities they need to acquire to be a suitable candidate for a key executive role.
