Amazing, actionable advice.

Concise, to the point, and left us with real phrases that we can use every day … I wish more presenters used anecdotes and actionable items the way that this workshop did.

Questions that people like you ask before they own their seat and elevate their impact.

I’m super busy – are we meeting every week?

Yes, we meet once a week for 90 minutes. Sessions will be recorded if you need to make up the training or want to review it afterwards.

My topics are very technical and complex – will this really work?

Absolutely! This is designed with complex, complicated and new-to-the-world concepts in mind. Your clarity skills will also help you deal with uncertainty and pivot your message.

Is there something I need to know before I sign up?

You must already have a strong grasp of your business strategy, strategic levers and goals.

AMPLIFY YOUR STRATEGIC IMPACT is for high-potential leaders and new executives who understand strategy but find it difficult to read executive audiences and tend to over-explain in an effort to be thorough. If you don’t understand strategy, you will struggle with application.

My background is different than my peers or audience. Sometimes I get thrown off by pushback. Will this help me deal with bias, tokenism, or discounting?

Yes. Yes. Yes. Too often diverse speakers worry about discounting or being talked over. This triggers them to overcompensate, like being too granular to prove they’re smart or becoming defensive.

The clarity process addresses triggers such as unexpected pushback or dealing with hidden biases that lead to granular or overly technical explanations. This also works well for English-as-a-second-language speakers.

I love the topics, but what if I need more training or different training?

If you have additional questions, there will be an office hour every week. If you need something more in-depth connect with Rebecca for options.

Still wondering "Is this right for me?"

You're READY to win and own your seat at the executive table if...

You're high-potential, BUT...

You can't seem to get the promotion. It feels like the bar keeps moving and the feedback is vague like, "Be more strategic." You need clear and actionable steps to demonstrate your strategic thought leadership.

You have a strong grasp of the business strategy, BUT...

You struggle to explain the commercial value of your ideas, especially if they are complex, new-to-the-world or moonshot.

You have a breakthrough concept, BUT...

No one seems to understand. You're tired of explaining and explaining and thinking, "WHY DON'T THEY GET IT."

You're comfortable speaking up and presenting to executives, BUT...

You want more confidence influencing and managing UP. You want to improve how you read the room, because sometimes end up in the weeds.
