Enhancing Leadership Presence With Rachel Cossar

As John Maxwell says, ‘Leadership is Influence, and Influence is Leadership‘, and in order to build influence, leaders must work on creating a level of presence with their key stakeholder groups. The unfortunate thing though is that many leaders believe that this presence is developed solely through the verbal communication tools at their disposal. This is not the case. Our non-verbal communication strategies are the ones which can significantly magnify our presence and hence our ability to influence. In today’s episode, I have the privilege of having a conversation with Rachel Cossar, CEO & Co-Founder of Virtual Sapiens, a machine learning SaaS platform helping client facing professionals master communication skills over video. As a former professional ballet dancer, Rachel is a leading expert in the field of nonverbal communication and leadership presence facilitation, and we chat about how the development of this competency can have such an incredibly positive impact on our ability to lead and influence. I hope you enjoy the episode.
