Scott Johnston - Gravitas Coach
Scott qualified as a Barrister and has spent 25 years specialising in 'people' areas of the law, some very painful, including HR, employment law and bullying & harassment. For the last 10 years or so, he has been increasingly 'escaping' the law and now brings the skills of the legal world into your business world.
Having been on his own journey and suffered from the self-sabotage that is Imposter Syndrome, his passion is to help leaders, professionals and business owners to Be More Compelling.
Module Format
There are 7 modules. Each module comprises three components.
Firstly, a one hour, highly-interactive, small-group zoom session.
After quick introductions, I'll lead off with about 20 minutes of content on the topic. We'll jump into breakout room discussions for a few minutes and then come back together as a group to share thoughts and reflections.
Secondly, there will be a 10-page mini-workbook with materials for that module, sent in advance of the small-group session.
Thirdly, we'll have a follow-up email Q&A after each small-group session. Any questions asked by email will be answered in an email to the whole group before the next module, so we all benefit from each other's ideas and queries.
Confidentiality will, of course, be respected at all times.
In addition to the 7 modules, we include a 121 session - to be arranged at a mutually convenient time. That too will be a one hour virtual session.

Confidence. Assertiveness. Gravitas. How do they impact on each other? How do they help you to Be More Compelling - or not?
Using my self-diagnostic inventory, you'll understand how you measure up and what areas you need to focus on - whether that's to turn it up or tone it down.
I firmly believe that we are, in every single human interaction, in one way or another, always negotiating. So we had better get good at it.
You can learn how to 'negotiate like a lawyer' and 'out-influence' the room.
Espeically in leadership and sales. Also essenital when it comes to influencing stakeholders, volunteers, clients and colleagues - where we can't just 'pull rank'.
Uderstanding what causes, and perpetuates, the self-sabotage that is Imposter Syndrome. Building a resolute mindset and self-identity to keep it in check - and even overcome it.
Interpersonal conflict is a fact of life, business and relationships.
Let's build our conflict competence and conflict confidence by understanding how it starts, how it escalates and how it is resolved.
Gravitas is the secret sauce to being more impressive, persuasive and successful as a leader, professional and business person.
When coupled with clarity, charisma and compassion, you will be even more Compelling.
Let's raise our game when speaking and presenting AND when we have to speak without preparation - whether that's a last-minute request or the (some say, dreaded) Q&A after your presentation.
We will review our learnings and experience from the programme, the impact we have had and what we need to do to keep making progress.
Programme Dates & Times
Each group session will be for one hour, on zoom. If you prefer, you can use Teams as there's a zoom app within Teams.
We'll finish the session within the hour but I'll hang around for about 15 minutes for those who have a little more time to chat.
If the dates don't work for you, don't worry. Let me know of your interest as there will be future/concurrent cohorts.
