Synopsis

There's no question that executive-level conversations are difficult ones. When we surveyed managers about executive conversations, 90% said these conversations are harder and 20% said that they are significantly harder. Executives are a tough audience. But luckily, they are also a predictable one. Leading Executive Conversations provides a framework for organizing an executive-level conversation to deliver value and to lead an executive to a clear decision. This approach has helped hundreds of managers shift from a survival strategy to an impactful one. And, that's critical because your ability to lead an executive conversation earns you the opportunity to have another one.
