Is this Masterclass right for my team?

Leadership Presence is the ability to connect authentically with the thoughts and feelings of others. It is the elusive “X-Factor” that a lot of executives are perennially in search of. An often misunderstood concept, “commanding attention” is only one outcome of having Leadership Presence, not its essence or even its most valuable outcome.

Who better than a Rockstar who embodies it himself – to speak about the topic! Adam has worked with numerous organisations in India such as Tata-AIG, Birla Sun Life, Aditya Birla Finance, DHFL and Vodafone, as well as with NGOs such as Pratham, Aarambh, the Steve Waugh Foundation and the Brett Lee Foundation (MEWSIC). Australian clients include Qantas, Vodafone, BHP, ANZ Bank, NAB bank, Cadbury Schweppes, Assa Abloy, Marvel Stadium and two Olympic swim teams.

If you are looking at inspiring your leaders towards having more Leadership Presence, Adam Thompson is perhaps one of the very few Facilitators available in the world who can talk about it authentically. FocusU invites you to explore a Masterclass with him.
