Sprecherin:

Stephanie R. Gehl

Transformational Executive

When we think about leadership, we often focus on experience, expertise, or results. But there’s another factor that often determines who gets the opportunity to lead at the highest levels—executive presence. Through research and teachings from scholars, authors, and leadership advisors in the field of leadership development, executive presence has been identified as a quality that signals to others that you’re ready for bigger responsibility. Stephanie will provide an overview of what executive presence really means, why it matters for leaders at every level, and most importantly, how it can be intentionally developed.

As an Executive who has developed her executive presence through more than two decades of global cross functional assignments and expansive leadership training, Stephanie hopes to accelerate the knowledge and development of executive presence in those around her. She’ll explore through stories relating to the three pillars of executive presence: gravitas, communication, and appearance where the potential exposure points can be, and provide the audience with insight on positive adjustments you can make to elevate your executive presence.
