Executive Presence to the Power of C™
Audiences will identify concrete characteristics that set them apart as influencers in the C-suite. They’ll learn to think on their feet, structure a message for executives, and pay attention to body language so that it supports rather than sabotages their message.
Communicate Like a Leader: Connecting Strategically to Coach, Inspire, and Get Things Done
People often get promoted from supervisor to manager or from manager to senior executive with brilliant technical skills but without the accompanying leadership and communication skills for the job. As a result, these bosses get stuck in micromanagement mode. Dianna Booher, bestselling author of Communicate Like a Leader, helps leaders prevent micromanagement before it happens.

Get a Life Without Sacrificing Your Career
