One-on-one coaching

Communicating confidently with superiors

Benefits

If we're honest – a touch of nervousness doesn't hurt. It spurs us on to peak performance. Like an athlete before a competition, we're in the here and now, focused and ready to win. But too much of it is simply bad. Suddenly we turn into our 12-year-old self.

Some conversations, presentations or appearances in general throw us off balance more quickly – especially when they take place with people hierarchically above us. In our individual coaching «Communicating Confidently with Superiors», you learn to communicate confidently, clearly and calmly – even in demanding hierarchical situations.

You strengthen your inner attitude, your presence and your language in order to present yourself confidently, without losing respect or naturalness.

Respect, yes – nervousness, just a touch.

Content

  • gain confidence when dealing with people higher up the hierarchy
  • reflect on and adapt your impact on superiors, clients or leaders
  • speak clearly and persuasively: structuring what you say
  • Recognizing nervousness, regulating it and transforming it into calm with different strategies
  • Communicating at eye level, without coming across as arrogant or submissive
  • Confidently leading conversations and structuring arguments
  • Dealing with killer phrases

No one doubts that you're competent. But can you make your competence visible and audible? How do you overcome your nervousness?

Possible goals and content of your coaching could include:

We work with your specific situations in role plays and in front of the camera. We reflect on your body language, voice and content. You'll also receive many tips and tricks for your nervousness.

This individual coaching can be complemented by a WingWave coaching session. With our WingWave coaching, we combat stage fright and blocks. This creates a new presence in our clients, grounded in self-confidence.

Until then: Over the next few days, observe conversations with people hierarchically above you – in meetings, phone calls or presentations. Notice what changes in you as soon as hierarchy becomes noticeable: Posture? Voice? Pace? Racing heart?
