The Executive Advantage: Influence That Actually Works at the Top
Influence is the #1 topic that comes up in the coaching room, and not just for aspiring leaders.

You’ll learn:
- Why influence at the executive level is multi-dimensional
- The subtle mistake of communicating to roles instead of people
- The hidden cost of compensation strategies like overpreparing, escalating and too much detail
- Three simple, practical shifts leaders can make today to increase executive influence
