Those rising to the upper ranks of an organization often give—or receive—the feedback that they need to develop “executive presence” or “gravitas.” Unfortunately, though this feedback is suggestive, it is almost entirely unhelpful for someone looking to make real change. They wonder: “Where am I going astray? What do ‘executive presence’ and ‘gravitas’ mean anyway? And, how can I work on that?” In this session, we will deconstruct what is most commonly referred to as the lack of executive presence and/or gravitas. Participants will then actively work to diagnose the common issues that they see in the workplace (in themselves or those they lead). By the end of this session, participants will have a set of tools that allow them to probe this feedback when/if given to them and strategies to give more helpful feedback (and great resources) to those they lead.
