Introduction
Course overview
Getting time with senior executives is difficult, and when it comes it is usually short. Professionals who can brief leaders concisely, anticipate their concerns and influence their thinking are trusted with more responsibility and see their ideas implemented. Those who ramble, overload with detail or fail to make a clear ask lose credibility quickly.
This Briefing and Influencing Senior Executives training course develops the skills needed to communicate upwards with confidence and impact. Participants learn how executives think and decide, how to prepare concise verbal briefings, how to frame proposals in strategic terms, how to handle challenge and tough questions, and how to build lasting influence with senior stakeholders.
Participants practise briefing senior leaders in realistic simulations and receive detailed feedback on content, structure and presence.
