I welcome back Amy Gonzales, of AG Leadership, to Warriors at Work to re-record a conversation on the power of presence. This is one of the most popular conversations on my platform and I thought it was a good time to see what has changed since Covid and discuss how our communication skills are evolving in a hybrid world. We discuss some differences we see from a gender and cultural perspective, the nuances between charisma and presence, and how to skillfully “read the room” to become a powerful communicator.
Amy has helped thousands of leaders around the world enhance their communication effectiveness and gravitas. As a listener, you will feel like you have a “front row seat” into a private workshop so grab your pen and paper!
Amy Gonzales oversees the development and management of WOMEN Unlimited’s programs globally. In addition to her work with WOMEN Unlimited, Gonzales runs a consulting practice, AG Leadership, which focuses on leadership effectiveness and communication. Possessing the ability to build rapport and powerful dialogue with both new managers and senior executives, Gonzales’ coaching style is direct, perceptive and always practical.
