Master the Art of Presence and Influential Leadership
Leading teams and organisations effectively in today’s climate of endless uncertainty is contingent on your ability to inspire confidence in other people.
This requires you not only articulate and communicate your ideas with clarity and composure; you also have to build trust – trust in your competencies as a leader and decision-maker, in your technical capabilities, and in your absolute commitment to follow through on what you say you will do.
Executive Presence and Influence is an online course that aims to demystify these qualities – redefining them as skills that can be learned and mastered rather than innate traits or characteristics.
Integrating the latest research and thinking around communication, body language, trust and the science of influence, the programme also offers a highly hands-on approach and constructive exercises that will accelerate your self-awareness and practical understanding.
