Description
Why is Executive Presence one of the most sought-after skills?
It's not why you might think. It's not about admiration or owning the room. The real value is how Executive Presence helps you gain access to more opportunities to advance your career. In other words, Executive Presence sets the ceiling for your success. But how do you get it?
Copying others piecemeal doesn't work. You end up as a sort of inauthentic, Franken-xecutive. Ignoring others to "just do you" is also a losing strategy. You end up excluded from the inner circle and are left to ponder your sins in career purgatory. So what works?
We are all diverse in ways that are seen and unseen. The question is, "how do you leverage your diversity?" In every organization and in the hearts and minds of its people is a prevailing mental model of a leader. Very few people fit this model to a T, so most are faced with a choice. Do you sacrifice your diversity to be viewed as more leader-like or do you embrace your diversity at the risk of being viewed less leader-like?
This is the Diversity Dilemma.
This course provides two powerful breakthroughs:
How you can generate Executive Presence - in any situation and any organization
How to handle the Diversity Dilemma without sacrificing your diversity or success
