Lead with confidence and authenticity
True leadership isn’t about titles or authority—it’s about presence. When you walk into a room, stand on a stage, or lead a conversation, the way you show up shapes how others listen, respond, and engage. This keynote explores how cultivating authentic presence allows you to lead with both confidence and heart.
Through stories, practical strategies, and interactive insights, Cathy reveals how presence is not about perfection but about alignment—connecting who you are with how you lead.
