Presenting Your Ideas at the Executive Level

Executives expect presentations made to them to be crisp, clear, and credible, with the content precisely centered on their needs.

They also expect the presenter to display a strong executive presence -- whether the presenter is actually an executive or not!

This learn-by-doing workshop is built on Mandel’s 25 years of C-Level presentation training and coaching with executives. That extensive experience with senior executives is available here to help your non-executive presenters, who must successfully get their ideas across to some of the highest-stakes audiences in the world -- groups of their own company’s executives.

Presenters will learn how to:

  • Prepare their content in a way that will hit the mark with the executives
  • Deliver the message with the presence of a person worthy of being in the room
  • Build confidence and credibility while communicating with senior groups
  • Constructively deal with tough, challenging, and diverting questions
  • Interact with executive groups in a “real,” natural way

Professionals, managers, directors, and VPs find this training vital to their success, when their role requires them to present to executives to advocate a position or recommendation, evaluate alternatives, review project or business unit progress, and/or report on issues that will affect the executives’ strategic or tactical decision making.

Presenters learn how to elevate their ideas to the executives’ level; organize and tell a compelling executive-centered story; handle tough questions, challenges, and diversions; and display both confidence under pressure and executive presence.
