Improving your executive presence is not simply a nice thing to do. It is essential for decreasing your stress, advancing your career and optimizing your team’s performance.
When we lack executive presence we experience:
- Missed Leadership Opportunities: Lack of executive presence can prevent you from being considered for key leadership roles or promotions. I’ve personally seen a colleague devastated because she had technical competence, but not executive presence and she was passed over again and again.
- Inability to Influence and Inspire: The data shows that executive presence is closely tied to the ability to influence and inspire others. Leaders who lack executive presence may struggle to rally support for their ideas, gain buy-in from their teams, or motivate others to achieve their goals. This limits your impact and effectiveness as leaders can be diminished.
- Decreased
Credibility and Trust: Executive presence is closely tied to credibility
and trust. When you fail to project confidence, display poor communication
skills, or lack emotional intelligence, it can erode the trust and
confidence others have in them. This can lead to a loss of credibility,
making it difficult to gain support, build effective teams, and make
impactful decisions.
And so much more!

Rhonda Y. Williams
Many years ago, I was living in a world of overwhelming stress. As a former C-Suite healthcare executive, I was expected to be available 24/7, managing one crisis after the next, ignoring my internal warning signs and missing time with my family.
At the time, I did not see any other way. I have since learned the secret to leading effectively while keeping your sanity and I am on a mission to help leaders around the globe do the same.
Today, I am known as The Modern Leadership Sensei. I help leaders and organizations crush the culture of chaos and crisis so they can fulfill their purpose and promise.
