Mumbai, 18 December 2024 – KPMG in India and Being Transformed Pvt Ltd (“Impossible Transformations”), today announced that they are teaming up to offer an experiential and transformative programme titled ‘Transforming Your Leadership Presence’ aimed at enabling CXO level professionals to build a strong and sustained leadership presence.
In today’s global business environment, leaders face multifaceted challenges. These include industry disruptions, shifting customer demands, new competition, diverse multigenerational workforces, to name a few. In view of this, leaders are expected to inspire their teams by staying committed to their organisational vision.
To that effect, making an impact in such a complex, dynamic environment requires leaders to exercise influence, which can be achieved through a strong leadership presence. Building an impactful leadership presence involves harnessing the power of the inner self – their inner centeredness, their innate capacities, and purpose. This needs to be complemented by a strong outer self that helps leaders present themselves confidently in the external world. To sum up, mastering both the inner self and the outer self, is fundamental to creating an authentic, powerful, and enduring leadership presence.
The four-month ‘Transforming Your Leadership Presence’ programme, jointly offered by KPMG in India and Impossible Transformations, focuses on strengthening the inner and the outer presence. The programme is designed to enable participants to self-reflect, critically examine, and discover their true selves and identify the brakes that hold them back. The programme would also look to equip leaders with tools and skills that will enable them to emerge as leaders, with great presence and lead with humility and authenticity.
“Leaders today need to step up their influence to ensure their organisations thrive. Influence comes from having a great presence, derived from a leader’s inner game (the being), and demonstrated through the outer game (the doing). A balanced interplay of the inner and outer game is fundamental to creating a sustainable, authentic, and impactful leadership presence” said Vijay Gogoi, Partner and Lead, Learning Services, KPMG in India, sharing his views on the announcement.
Manisha Dahad, Co-founder, Impossible Transformations, commented, “In today’s environment of overwhelming pressure and uncertainty, a leader who is centred in their true self, who can stand by what they truly believe in, and who emanates positivity, can transform people around them. Such leaders, who operate from deep within and fully express who they are from a space of wholeness, are needed in our environment.”
