Who this is for

This one-day intensive is for mid- and senior-level purpose-driven leaders who need to communicate with impact across diverse contexts and settings, including team briefings, stakeholder meetings, presentations and more. They want their words to build trust, inspire action and align teams around shared goals. Without this skill, influence is diluted, alignment frays and strategic priorities lose momentum.

Why it matters now

In today’s environment of complexity, disruption and uncertainty, leaders are judged as much by how they communicate as by the outcomes they deliver. The ability to deliver a clear, credible and compelling message isn’t just a career advantage, it’s a leadership necessity. Without it, leaders risk disengaged teams, misaligned stakeholders and missed opportunities to lead change. With it, they earn trust, drive clarity and accelerate results.

What you’ll gain

• Personalised leadership communication insights from an Extended DISC® diagnostic.
• Audience analysis techniques for enhanced receptivity.
• Storytelling frames and archetypes for different contexts.
• Proven frameworks to craft resonant messages and narratives.
• Confidence to present ideas and vision persuasively.
• Elevated presence with voice and body alignment.
