Course overview

Self-confidence is a requirement for effective leadership. Teams struggle to commit to a leader who lacks belief in their own abilities. This workshop provides an intensive coaching environment for individuals at any baseline of confidence, from naturally reserved to already assertive.

The five days focus on the practical situations where confidence matters most. Delegates will prepare and structure business presentations, learn to manage conflict situations head-on, and develop techniques for engaging with senior executives. The training addresses body language, the power of storytelling and how to sell unpopular policies. By the end of the week, attendees will have the tools to increase their personal charisma and present their ideas persuasively.
