Leadership Presence: Understanding and Communicating through Body Language

Expand your impact using insight from a new perspective

We communicate much more than our words convey. Our first language is body language, and its impact is profound. Our body language sends, receives, and deciphers a myriad of nonverbal cues, signs and signals.

Bringing our attention to this level of communication gives us immeasurable insight, and helps us decode the real meaning beneath spoken words to determine what is really going on with and between people. It also provides us with a deeper awareness of ourselves, allowing us to develop an authentic leadership presence. From this deeper awareness comes the ability for deep listening, solid thinking, insightful reflecting, and effective responding. In this program, using active simulations and guided reflection, participants will learn how to develop a confident self-knowledge that will aid them in all aspects of their lives.
