Transforming Leaders for Over 20 Years
Through workshops, written content, and coaching, Executive Presence, Inc. has served Fortune 500 companies and thousands of emerging leaders over the last 20 years. What was once an obscure concept to many, executive presence is now considered a core leadership skill by some of the most prestigious companies in the world. Top business schools are also embracing the term and include executive presence classes in their executive education programs.
The Inspiration Behind Executive Presence
The impact of exceptional interpersonal skills was something that always enthralled our Founder and CEO, Dr. Paul Aldo.
Through his vast and diverse experiences as a college professor, social psychologist, and successful business executive, a burning question prevailed:
How We Got Here
Unsatisfied with the vague answers he was getting, Paul leaned into research - what exactly were these great leaders doing behaviorally, to differentiate themselves, and what were the cognitive and emotional qualities underlying these advantageous behaviors?
Why are some leaders so captivating, with something almost seemingly magical about them, while most others are not?
His findings inspired Paul to start Executive Presence, Inc. in 2004, aiming to make these “magical qualities” accessible to everyone through clear methodology and tools. A nascent concept, Paul knew executive presence was a teachable skill that could shift people, businesses, and results.
