Supercharge Your Executive Presence: A Leader's Guide to Managing Your Brand At Work

Executive presence is a critical soft skill, universally acknowledged yet often elusive, both in terms of its definition and application. Yet if we want to advance professionally, it’s something we need to learn and use in our day-to-day interactions.

The fundamental characteristics remain the same — traits like gravitas, charisma, and your appearance. However, as our way of working has evolved due to economic, cultural, and technological changes, so has the definition of executive presence.

Today, the traditional markers of executive presence have moved past conventional expectations like business suits and formal business lunches. Instead in our modern working landscape, executive presence lies in authentic leadership, crafting and projecting a career brand that follows you in and out of the office, and nurturing relationships built on trust and respect.

Join Lorraine Lee, an expert in supercharging your professional presence, as she delves into the 3Cs of executive presence for today’s leaders. Whether you’re just starting your career journey or a seasoned professional, this session is designed to empower you with the confidence and skills to enhance your leadership impact and executive presence in any organization.

How To Lead With Impact: Strategies to Build Collaboration and Trust On Your Team

In today’s dynamic business landscape, cross-functional collaboration, open communication, and productivity are key to helping remote teams thrive.

However, when managers know how to lead their teams effectively — from implementing thoughtful onboarding and leading engaging team meetings to creating supportive feedback loops and building positive team dynamics — they create teams and cross-functional partners that trust each other and collaborate better.

This empowers team members to achieve their own professional goals while positively impacting company objectives.

9 Essential Tips For More Effective Hybrid And Virtual Meetings

Lorraine is a LinkedIn Learning Instructor for 2 popular meeting courses (40,000+ learners!)

Meetings are a multi-billion dollar problem. And they’re not going anywhere.

And with more finite resources and human capital, meetings are a major factor in what can make or break an organization.

We have 250% more meetings every day than we did before the pandemic. We’re also spending more than half of our standard workweek in meetings, for a whopping total of 21.5 hours. It’s costing companies billions and leading to unhappy employees, burnout, and Zoom fatigue — a recipe for disaster.

Join Lorraine as she shares strategies for making your virtual and hybrid meetings more engaging, collaborative, and productive — so that your employees get more flexibility in their schedules, see better results, and have an overall more positive experience at work.

How To Build Your LinkedIn Presence

Also offered as a workshop

LinkedIn is much more than a job search site. But with more than 1 billion members and a growing pool of new features, it can be difficult to know where to start and how to stand out. These days, your online brand and presence are just as important — if not more so — to help grow your career and visibility.

If you want to build your brand, attract recruiters, establish yourself as a thought leader, and find opportunities you never expected, it’s time to learn how to take advantage of all LinkedIn has to offer.

Learn from Lorraine, one of the founding editors at LinkedIn and a LinkedIn Learning Instructor with more than 300,000 followers, who will share her insider tips and tricks for leveraging the largest professional social network.

Make a Memorable First Impression On Video: THE TEA METHOD

When getting on a video call with partners, teammates, or clients, first impressions matter. But with less physical space to make an impression and more factors to consider, like tech malfunctions and Zoom fatigue, standing out online can feel more difficult and overwhelming than it does in person.

The reality: Once you’re equipped with a few key pieces of information and frameworks, you’ll be ready to stand out in a virtual world.

Join Lorraine, a top-rated virtual speaker and video communications expert, who will distill everything she’s learned in an easily digestible way with tips you can implement right after the session.

How To Present Like a Pro

Presentations are undoubtedly a cornerstone of business and will continue to be an essential way to share your ideas, gain buy-in, impress leadership, and ultimately help you stand out and succeed.

But for many, public speaking is the last thing they want to do. For those who do take the plunge, they’re riddled with anxiety and nerves. On top of that, virtual presentations present their own new set of challenges — both in terms of delivery and the content itself.

How do we stand out and break through the noise?

She simplified complex and vague topics into practical steps that attendees could start implementing immediately.

Lorraine is a fantastic speaker who has given two TED Talk-caliber sessions at Cisco. Her talks have been some of the most popular among our group.
Her presentations are dynamic, interactive, and filled with real-life examples that resonated with our team members.

I enthusiastically recommend Lorraine as a speaker and presenter to any organization. We hope to have her back again at Cisco soon!

Lorraine gave a session on the topic of building influence to our small group of affinity group members at eero/Amazon, and she did not disappoint! Our attendees gave glowing feedback about how useful and informative the session was. It was packed with a wealth of data-driven insights, actionable recommendations, and opportunities for audience members to weigh in and stay engaged. Although our group was a bit quiet, Lorraine was super professional, and her content made the hour pass by in a flash. We would love to host her again!

Lorraine Lee is a phenomenal speaker. I’ve had the pleasure of interviewing her on the PowerToFly Chat & Learn program where she demonstrated her expertise in video production and video presentation.

Lorraine did a tremendous job presenting at TWE's Tech Fair using Prezi. She upskilled the team on how we can overcome "Zoom Fatigue" and build virtual influence to better engage with our stakeholders.

Our team members were amazed at the quality of the content. Some stated they could not believe she was presenting live due to how professional she spoke and how interactive the slide contents were.

I'm so glad that Lorraine came to speak to the GitLab team during our All-Remote Communications speaker series. Her presentation was engaging, easy to follow, and introduced our team to new and innovative ideas on how to improve our video communications.

Her presentation encouraged engagement in an authentic way that made everyone enjoy the call. Lorraine was open to having a Q&A after her presentation, which was a great way for our team members to connect with her directly.

Lorraine is an excellent presenter. We asked her to record a short session for emerging newsroom managers in a Poynter Institute workshop about how to onboard and lead remote teams, and she fit lots of valuable information into the time without making it feel rushed or overpacked.

Her presentation style is engaging whether she's live or recorded, and she struck the perfect combination of actionable tips with helpful on-screen text/graphics to reinforce her message.
