In our communication, there are three ' elements' used to express a message: verbal content, body language, and the voice. When these elements are not congruent, we often will believe the body language and the voice. For this reason, non-verbal elements are particularly important for communicating feelings and attitudes and in engaging others; in any type of leadership role these aspects are vital in order to be an effective leader. Leading with Presence provides a practical guide as to how and why Presence in everyday interaction is a vital component of impactful leadership. This book explores and teaches about non-verbal communication such as posture, gestures, and the voice to create more awareness and understanding of the signals sent, and explains how to be present and ' in the moment,' how to connect with others, to ' read the room,' to motivate and inspire, to instill trust, to exude confidence and thus strengthen your leadership. Through theory, practical tools and exercises, this book is essential reading for all business professionals in understanding the science behind body language, and exploring, practicing and understanding Leadership Presence.
Executive presence; we recognize it instantly the moment we are confronted with it. . . the authors finally succeeded in demystifying the notion of ' presence' and nonverbal behaviour in leadership by establishing a unique connection between vast scientific knowledge and practical tools that will enable leaders to further increase their impact. . . -- Ronald de Jong, Distinguished Professor of Practice in Business, Tilburg University, Chairman Philips Foundation, Retired Member Executive Committee, Royal Philips In this book a triple synergy comes together; science, experience, and practical applicability, like in the training at RSM and several of their trainings. It is inspiring and reflects where you are. Provides valuable insights and is useful regardless your level of professional experience. -- Kirsten van Benthem, Commerial Manager, Catalyze - Life Science Consultancy Effective communication is key for successful leadership. Yet respective books and seminars tend to only focus on verbal communication, while reducing non-verbal communication to a side-note. This book is therefore a breath of fresh air. It takes non-verbal communication center-stage by marrying science with practice and presenting concrete exercises and how-to-dos. An accessible read that makes it easy to get better at what matters most as a leader: effective communication. -- Professor Dr. Niels Van Quaquebeke, Kuhne Logistics University & University of Exeter Leading with Presence is an invaluable guide for anyone who seeks to ensure that their body and voice contribute to their positive impact. Antonie, Milly and Steffen' s collaboration have resulted in a treasure trove of principles, stories and exercises underpinned by thorough scientific evidence that will make you think about and enhance your non-verbal cues in a whole new way. -- Nicola Kleyn, Professor of Corporate Marketing and Dean of Executive Education at Rotterdam School of Management
