How can you help leaders recognize and overcome their blind spots?

What is a "signature voice” and why it is important in developing executive presence?

My guest on this episode is Muriel Wilkins, CEO Advisor & Executive Coach, Host of HBR podcast - Coaching Real Leaders, Founder Paravis Partners

During our conversation Muriel and I discuss:

  • The biggest challenges highly successful executives face including scaling their leadership and becoming victims of their own past success.
  • Why understanding both context and desired outcomes is critical when coaching leaders.
  • Key insights from her book "Own the Room" and how developing a "signature voice" is essential for establishing your leadership presence.
  • Why leadership presence isn't an innate quality as many believe, but rather a skill that can be deliberately cultivated.
  • Practical advice for HR leaders on building credibility and delivering tough feedback effectively to senior executives.
