Your appearance as a manager

Effective communication and top performance in a male domain

This training is held in German.
Female managers (still) often operate in male domains. These often follow their own rules and pose particular challenges. Overcome language barriers, eliminate inhibitions and optimize your performance. With an optimal presence, you can be convincing directly and virtually - without having to bend! Use professional communication strategies to achieve a breakthrough in difficult contacts and critical negotiations. Break through traditional patterns and convince as a manager with an exceptional appearance - characterized by your sovereignty, authenticity and punch.

Contents

Communicate professionally

  • Uncover and counter targeted manipulation.
  • Breaking through male speech patterns.
  • Feedback from a professional: optimize your speaking and expression skills.
  • Communicative bullying - how to break through set barriers.
  • There are lots of stupid questions ... and even more stupid answers.
  • If you can't finish, it's your own fault.
  • Prerequisites for successful negotiations in critical situations.
  • The winner takes it all: communicative success can be controlled - even remotely.

Persuasive rhetoric: your convincing appearance in front of an audience, on committees or in meetings

  • Communicate facts and emotions precisely, directly and concisely!
  • Strategic conversation patterns of professional dialectics.
  • Words that stick - core messages that convince.
  • Learn how to pick up your counterpart (also in virtual contact), captivate them emotionally and inspire them with your personality and liveliness.

Success factor - winning with ease and skill

  • Provoke - be quick-witted: "Cracking" traditional communication patterns.
  • Quick-witted handling of unpleasant contemporaries.
  • "Let garbage float by" applied yesterday, today it is consistently disposed of - dealing with attacks and insults.
  • Sell yourself and your expertise with the right tools.
  • Cheeky as Oskar? No: confident like you!    

Female performance in management

  • Self-praise stinks? Your consistent work is convincing.
  • Optimize sensitivity and empathy in a "man's world".
  • Declarations of intent or promises? Anticipate the future linguistically.
  • The body language code for your successful appearance - optimally different - also online.
  • More charisma for you? Presentable - tangible - perceptible.
  • Out of performance overkill: Motivating learning focus.
  • Complaining doesn't help, addressing it does ... with the "Bredemeier feedback".

With feedback from Prof. Dr. Karsten Bredemeier, you will develop your strategy for success as a manager - precisely tailored to your individual management situation, whether in the office on site or in virtual space.

Management training for women

In times of a gender pay gap and a persistently low percentage of female managers in companies, women in management positions often still find it difficult to assert themselves against male employees or management colleagues. With this management training for women, participants lay the foundation for more assertiveness and learn which communication strategies can help them succeed.

Breaking patterns and promoting change

Every woman in a management position is a multiplier for change in management culture. Seminars such as this management training course not only sharpen personal profiles, but can also strengthen the positive effect of female leadership in the long term. An important part of the two-day course is to recognize typical role patterns in the company in order to break through them in a targeted manner. Topics such as bullying, manipulation and typical language patterns in business play an important role here. The aim is for participants to become aware of their role as a manager and to strengthen and improve their individual skills.
