Presenting Needs:

Sample Client kicked off their Women's program in October 2023 with aims to do the following:
  • - Enhance Representation and Diversity: The program addresses the existing gender disparity in leadership roles within the industry, fostering a more inclusive environment that promotes diverse perspectives and decision-making.
  • - Develop Skills and Build Confidence: By equipping women with essential skills and tools, the program empowers participants to navigate the male-dominated landscape, helping to build their confidence and professional presence.
  • - Create a Talent Pipeline: The program serves as a targeted development opportunity to identify and cultivate future female leaders in the industry, ensuring a continuous flow of talent that can drive innovation and growth.
Sample Client approached Axe & Arrow to deliver the "Engaging" module of the program.  This would involve two sessions designed to support and grow participant confidence, increase messaging impact and polish executive presence.

Executive Influence
​VIRTUAL  |  12 PARTICIPANT MAXIMUM  |  TWO MODULES​

Great leadership is built on our ability to influence others to accept and execute on our ideas.  However, an increase in overall messaging across the organization makes it increasingly more challenging for your ideas to be heard, gain momentum or reach implementation.  Executive Presence shows you how to adjust your messages and your presence to make them more compelling. Increase your influence by taking charge of the three elements of your presence.  Executive Presence confronts the challenges of being heard, and teaches leaders how to move audiences and make real impact through key shifts in how we show up at work.
By the end of this workshop, leaders will report:
  • Increased confidence in presenting at the leadership level
  • More compelling presentations
  • Greater knowledge around the science of how presence impacts messaging
  • Practice with adjusting presence, colleague feedback on small presence tweaks that would increase overall presentation impact

  • What small adjustments can you make in the moment to amplify the power of your voice?
 "Hands down, the most fun I've ever had in a workshop.  I loved the games and mini challenges.  I learned so much about how to get what I want from those around me and can't wait to start applying it on the daily. This workshop was insightful, engaging and super practical.  A must for anyone who wants to make a difference at their organization."

Axe & Arrow's process helped us define cultural norms and break down silos.  Our teamwork accelerated, and the company found its true 'North Star' that unleashed the full potential of the business.
