Leadership Communication for Women in the Workforce
Power Up: Leadership Presence for Women
Authority meets Authenticity. It’s a powerful combination.
Cleopatra was not only legendary for her political skill and magnetism. She was a strategic thinker and legendary speaker. Her powers of persuasion saved her life many times, and inspired a nation and a new world order. From the Queen of the Nile to Joan of Arc to Wonderwoman to Hilary Clinton, we will explore the power of iconic women to persuade and inspire through dynamic communication.
For years, research has shown that organizations with a gender balance at the senior leadership level are more innovative, stable, and – that’s right – more profitable. If you want to encourage more women to “lean in”, help them crack the glass ceiling with this dynamic program. If you are a woman who would like to be seen and heard at work, this program is for you.
This is not a program to “fix” women, but rather to empower women in the workforce to know their value and share it with confidence. Participants will gain confidence in developing their own regal presence, by expressing themselves with authenticity and power in meetings, boardrooms, presentations and phone calls. Cutting edge research meets practical tools for change.
