The journey to becoming an inspiring and authoritative leader demands more than just technical skills. It requires a strategic partnership that brings clarity, direction, and actionable insights. This is where personalized executive presence coaching can make a profound difference.
As a kid, I was plagued by performance anxiety in sports. The anxiety over the possibility of failure severely limited my athletic performance….yep, I choked A LOT. If I could focus, I could excel. As I moved into my professional career, sales allowed me to leverage a good degree of technical knowledge and a gregarious nature into some success. But I noted that, in the most critical moments or at the highest levels, my anxiety created confusion and stress and, more often than not, underperformance.
Following years of progressive leadership roles and managing through episodes of performance anxiety, it’s been my coaching journey that has led me to understand more about this crippling aspect of human behavior. Through research, training, introspection, and application, I have defined and refined an approach to assist others in mastering this important element of leadership. Countless senior and aspiring leaders have been able to improve their presence and influence, resulting in promotions, secured funding, enhanced organizational performance, and more.
