How do I come across as a manager?

Receive feedback - increase impact - expand leadership

This training is held in German.
An effective appearance, your personality and the way you deal with other people are crucial to your success as a manager. How do you come across to others? How do you communicate in challenging situations and under pressure? What unconscious behavioral patterns are at work here? And how do you act in discussions, presentations or speeches? In this training , you will receive intensive feedback on your leadership behavior from a professional. Through video feedback and the feedback of other participants, you will recognize your "blind spots" and can thus optimize your verbal and non-verbal behaviour in a very concrete way. With the help of the certified Insights MDI® personality analysis, you will professionally compare your self-image and the image you have of others in order to achieve the best possible impact in your company.
