This isn't another "executive presence" or "leadership development" training. This is about power literacy.
You'll learn:
- WHAT the real game of corporate advancement is (not what they tell you it is)
- WHAT you're under-leveraging (and it's not your skills or performance)
- WHAT the leaders who advance know that you don't (yet)
This is the truth nobody teaches you.
