Join this session to learn how to improve your essential "leadership presence" skills.
People who demonstrate leadership presence inspire confidence from their team, manager, and upper management. They can handle a variety of situations.
This presentation provides a current view of these skills and action steps to improve your visibility and credibility.
This webinar will cover the difference between a manager and a leader, what employees want from a manager and leader, the eight leadership presence skills, how to communicate and listen actively, how to build emotional and social intelligence while managing a team, how to manage up, and more crucial skills!
