The new CEO desired to achieve early and sustainable success in his role.
Challenge
The CEO wanted to present the company with a completely new structure. He needed to be well equipped to communicate effectively and inspirationally during and following this process. The CEO had to ensure that the company maintained and developed its winning reputation through enhancing his personal and professional image.
Solution
Initially the CEO was not very self-aware of his impact on others. He was acting from a place of uncertainty; was un-authentic as a result; and it showed. In exploring his relationship management strengths (emotional intelligence) and raising his physical and vocal awareness, Nicolette then focused on how he could improve his delivery skills in the different contexts in which he was delivering his key messages.
Results
- The process was very results focused. The CEO has developed an authentic style of impact leadership communication and, with this foundation, is using practical tools and strategies for getting the most out of colleagues. This has released his time and enhanced trusting and respectful working relationships. There is increased team motivation and quality of actions.
- As respect for him grows, he is finding he has more control and influence in leading the company forward. He is building a top team that delivers without him sitting on their shoulders; making the organisation truly competitive in its market place.
- The CEO can deliver clear and well-structured presentations, at little notice, without an unhealthy reliance on scripts and slides.
