Leading With Presence
Motivate teams, build relationships, and develop your authentic leadership style.
Who should attend: Nonprofit leaders who need to enroll others in their vision for a better future—those who need to inspire funders, internal teams and the public at large.
The Ariel Group's original two-day Leading with Presence program teaches individuals to harness their innate personal leadership presence to achieve break-through results in effective communication, collaboration with diverse groups, and forging strong, lasting, trust-based relationships with clients and colleagues.
Built on our model for Leadership Presence and using experiential, theater-based exercises, Leading with Presence allows participants to explore their unique personal histories to create and strengthen an authentic, individual leadership style that supports effective organizational leadership.
