Cross-Cultural Executive Presence: Turn Great Work into Trusted Leadership

This course is incredibly helpful. I wish I'd taken it right after college! Mike has so much to share: tips, tools, mindsets, and years of experience and wisdom. It goes beyond building executive presence. It's also about understanding how the game works, so instead of memorizing a few "what to do if" scripts, you can think for yourself in any situation. It even touches on work and life philosophy. Mike is a dream mentor. I wish I could meet with him once a month!
