It provides a concrete definition of executive presence and focuses on pragmatic, incremental changes in behavior driven by simple and sustainable improvement plans that really work.For the organization, the Nine Dimension Model provides an invaluable common vocabulary for talking about and evaluating leadership presence, whether for inclusion in the leadership pipeline, succession planning, or prescriptive improvement.
