Executive Presence: The Human Edge AI Can't Replace
In today’s complex communication landscape, meaningful connections are more essential—and challenging—than ever. As AI transforms our workplaces, leaders with strong executive presence remain vital to bridging the gap between technology and human connection. This interactive session will help you cultivate the qualities of executive presence: credibility, confidence, composure and physical presence, empowering you to foster authentic connections that drive influence and inspire action. Research shows that executive presence accounts for 26% of what it takes to earn promotion. Communication professionals, especially those aspiring to roles like Chief Communications Officer, must demonstrate high-level competence, inspire confidence, and lead with a presence that AI simply cannot emulate.

In high-performing organizations, leadership presence is not only a competency but a strategic advantage in the hiring process and annual reviews. Companies recognize that AI alone can't inspire; only human leaders with strong presence can rally teams, shape perceptions, and drive impact.
