Executive Women’s Council – Breakthrough, Engage & Persuade: The Foundation of Effective Leader Communications
Whether you are a CEO, manager or subject matter expert, whenever you speak on behalf of an organization, you are the face and voice of that brand. The thing is, few of us are born effective communicators, and that can put our goals and even our organizations at risk. As female leaders, we face even more barriers when it comes to effective communications.
At this event, veteran coach Kris Patrow will share the best practices, tools and techniques of effective leader communications – with a focus on women leaders – and how you can breakthrough, engage with and persuade your audiences to act in service of your business objectives.
Lunch will be provided.
Meet our Keynote Speaker:
Kris Patrow - Leader and Coach, PadillaPrep Coaching Practice; Senior Director, Padilla Corporate Advisory Group
As one of Padilla’s veteran coaches and corporate strategists, Kris saw firsthand the unique communications challenges clients experienced as a result of the pandemic. To address these challenges, she initiated an agency-wide effort to create PadillaPrep, our industry-leading coaching curriculum that combines the best of Padilla's expert coaches with the newest best practices, tools and techniques for successfully communicating in today's virtual, hybrid and in‑person landscape.
Kris has helped hundreds of clients across multiple industries immediately improve their communications skills, from leadership communications and presentation skills to media interviews, panel discussions and crisis media management skills. Her unique background as a national broadcast journalist, multimedia corporate strategist, author and public speaker make her a unique force in the industry and an invaluable resource for Padilla clients.
