Key Takeaways: Attendees will be able to apply techniques to display authenticity, confidence, resilience and presence in a professional way. Authenticity is the gold standard of leadership. If you are not ready to exhibit yourself in an authentic way, you will experience challenges that will become unsurmountable.
