Keynotes

Keynote by Joel Garfinkle: Executive Presence: Ignite Power, Confidence & Conviction in Your Leaders

When 400 CEOs were asked about their top criteria for selecting next-level leaders, 89% cited one defining trait—executive presence. This quality isn’t just important; it’s essential for accelerating career growth and propelling organizational success.

Do your leaders have Executive Presence? If not, how will they achieve it? This transformative program teaches your employees to step into their power, project confidence, and lead with conviction. They’ll evolve from hesitant and uncertain to self-assured, decisive, and bold in their decision-making.

Employees can only unlock their full potential as leaders when they command their executive presence. As they rise within the organization, the need for powerful presence and unshakable confidence grows. The higher the stakes, the more your leaders need that power and presence.

When your people master the art of leadership presence, they become the high-impact influencers who drive your organization forward. This program offers a step-by-step process using the powerful 3 x 3 Executive Presence Model, ensuring your leaders are equipped to inspire, influence, and lead effectively.

Joel Garfinkle’s book Executive Presence: Step Into Your Power, Convey Confidence & Lead With Conviction serves as the basis for this program.

Keynote by Joel Garfinkle: Unlock Leadership Potential: Career Advancement Strategies to Drive Organizational Success

Within every organization lies a wealth of untapped talent and overlooked leaders: individuals rich with potential yet often hidden from the spotlight. Joel Garfinkle’s transformative presentation introduces the powerful PVI-Model—Perception, Visibility, and Influence—designed to unlock these capabilities and elevate individuals into impactful leadership roles.

Joel’s workshop is more than just a presentation; it’s a shift in perspective. The PVI-Model offers a strategic framework that empowers leaders to master their career trajectory in complex corporate landscapes. Through Perception, they learn to shape how they are seen within the organization, ensuring their true value worth is recognized. Visibility expands their presence across teams and levels, guaranteeing they are both seen and heard. Influence equips them with the skills to inspire meaningful change, motivating colleagues to action and fostering a culture of innovation.

Those who embrace the PVI Model become architects of progress—they don’t wait for opportunities; they create them. Regardless of title or rank, these leaders drive advancement, effecting positive change that sparks collaboration, productivity, and achievement. Their ability to inspire at all levels fuels a cycle of growth that pushes the organization forward.

By leveraging the PVI Model, your company will empower employees to evolve into impactful, influential leaders. This program, based on Joel Garfinkle’s acclaimed book Getting Ahead: Three Steps to Take Your Career to the Next Level, provides a clear, actionable pathway to cultivate exceptional leadership across the organization.
