Own the Room: A Leader's Guide to Lasting Presence
This workshop focuses on cultivating authentic personal presence around your work. How you enter a room, how you grab and hold attention, and how people perceive you while you’re discussing your work can enhance the impact your words.
Through interactive exercises, guided reflection, and somatic technique, participants will develop confidence and presence that feels authentic to who they are and what they are hoping to convey. The goal is not to perform, but to connect – for your words to linger after you have left the interaction.
In this workshop, participants will:
- Identify the core elements of executive presence and apply them to help elevate everyday professional interactions.
- Strengthen communication skills through targeted coaching to speak with clarity, confidence, and credibility.
- Craft a concise, compelling introduction that leaves a strong, memorable impression in high-stakes conversations.
This event is open to ALL!
Complimentary for C-Sweet members. Non-member tickets - $25.
