Advancing Your Executive Wow - Live Virtual Training by Lowase School of Practice (April 2024)

Introduction

Your engagements, interactions, and expressions bear likely consequences on management, stakeholders, or customers, whether it is planned or by mistake. Effectiveness as a communicator will therefore determine your success anywhere, in business, government, practice and society.

Communication is key to succeeding as a professional, an orchestrator, a founder, or an executive. The need to inspire pleasure, attract raving fans, instill confidence in people, and convert opposition, is very critical. Sometimes the only thing holding us back is our executive presence and voice.
