Leadership II Program - For Mid to Upper-Level Managers

Leadership II Program - Executive Presence - For Mid to Upper-Level Managers

The premise of Executive Presence is to develop leaders who understand themselves, have high levels of self-awareness, identify, and embrace their unique leadership voice, and have a greater impact on the world around them. 

Executive Presence is the ability to consistently and clearly articulate your value proposition while influencing and connecting with others. These workshops will enable participants to enhance personal presence and “own the room” no matter where you sit in the organization.  Additional focus will be paid on creating a more defined virtual presence, thinking strategically and extemporaneously, communicating your brand effectively and lastly, formulating and executing a leadership philosophy stemming from each participant’s leadership journey, crucible moments and presence audit. 

This program is for existing managers and directors.

Program Outline:

Day 1 – Monday, May 19 - Bryant University - Leadership – The Journey, Your Philosophy and Defining Executive Presence (Big Picture)
