When you're in front of senior leaders or the board, you've got seconds—not minutes—to capture their attention and make your message land. Executives don't want a data dump, a 40-slide saga, or a meandering story that takes forever to get to the point. They want clarity, confidence, and a compelling narrative that tells them what matters right now. That's where executive storytelling becomes a powerful leadership skill—not just a presentation tactic.

My special guest today is Libby Magliolo, and she's simplifying how to master the art of executive storytelling. If you want to elevate your executive presence, influence decisions, and deliver presentations that are memorable (for all the right reasons), this episode is for you.
