In most business situations, being perceived as credible, confident and influential is vital for success. This course will help you to find your voice and develop a compelling presence, by articulating and demonstrating your value proposition as a leader.
You will start from the inside, using techniques from positive psychology to work on your self-confidence and develop an optimistic mindset. You will also define how you want others to perceive you, by articulating a memorable and consistent personal brand and using this as your baseline for the rest of the course.
We will then focus on your external presence: how to quickly build rapport, make an emotional connection, and inspire and influence your stakeholders. You will practise using your physical presence and vocal expressiveness to speak in front of groups with greater gravitas and charisma, and will learn how to weave stories into your communication to maximise the impact of your message.

This course is suitable for anyone looking to develop greater personal presence and credibility in order to be perceived more positively by internal and external stakeholders.
