unleashing her presence

Keisha was a marketing director at a global entertainment company and a participant in our Accelerate program. She was hard-working and had formed great relationships at work. But her 360 revealed that she would often clam up in meetings with senior leadership. Keisha’s coach helped her gain awareness of the self-limiting beliefs that were impacting her presence. Keisha began challenging those beliefs and set a goal to contribute multiple times in every meeting, no matter the level of participants. And she found that people welcomed her ideas and solutions. She realized her colleagues needed her input and that having a more confident presence made it more likely that others would listen to her input. By the end of the program, the CMO had noticed Keisha’s enhanced presence and had short-listed her for a promotion.
