Before You Scroll

Does executive presence feel vague, subjective, or unfairly out of reach?

  • Do you consistently deliver results - yet feel overlooked for stretch roles or visibility?

  • Have you been told to be “more executive,” “more confident,” or “more authoritative” - without clear guidance?

  • Do your ideas sometimes land flat despite being strong and well thought out?

  • Under pressure, do nerves, over-explaining, or self-doubt creep into your voice or body language?

  • Do you leave high-stakes meetings replaying what you should have said or how you should have shown up?


If any of this resonates: You don’t lack talent, intelligence, or ambition.You lack a clear, modern framework for executive presence. This course gives you the structure to project confidence, credibility, and calm - without pretending to be someone you’re not.


Because presence isn’t about performance. It’s about alignment.

TL;DR (Too Long; Didn't Read)

Cracking the Code of Executive Presence is a practical, immersive online course designed to help professionals close the gap between performance and perception. Using proven frameworks like the ACE Model, storytelling tools, body-language mastery, and Compassionate Candor, participants learn to project confidence, credibility, and calm under pressure. The program blends neuroscience, communication strategy, and real-world practice so presence becomes intentional, repeatable, and authentic - in person and virtually.

Course Overview

Executive presence is the invisible differentiator between merit and advancement. This course helps you move beyond technical excellence into how you are perceived, remembered, and trusted when stakes are high.


You’ll learn how to project gravitas without stiffness, communicate with clarity without over-explaining, and show up with confidence that feels grounded and authentic - whether in the boardroom or on Zoom.


This is Executive Presence 2.0: inclusive, human, and relevant for modern leadership.

A Leader Who Has Embodied Executive Presence

CLICK

FOR MORE

Executive presence isn’t something Leroy teaches from theory - it’s something he has had to earn, test, and refine in real rooms where credibility mattered.


Known for his authenticity, humor, contagious energy, kindness, and deep empathy, Leroy brings a rare blend of sharp strategic intelligence and heart-led leadership. His mission is simple and powerful: to care for those who care - leaders, professionals, and teams carrying the weight of high expectations.


He believes everyone has talent, and that with the right structure - and the right inner alignment - you can show up with confidence, clarity, and authority without losing yourself.


Global Leadership Experience - Presence Where It Actually Matters


Leroy’s career is a one-of-a-kind leadership story: he climbed from Analyst to Vice President by age 30 in Singapore and Asia, learning early what separates high performers from trusted executives - not just competence, but presence, credibility, and influence under pressure.

Since 2006, he has led and coached across three continents and 14+ countries, partnering with leaders in:

  • Global Fortune 500 organizations

  • Financial services and large-scale transformations

  • Federal and provincial government, Crown corporations, and enterprise teams in Canada

Most notably, Leroy served as a Vice President at a Swiss private bank, managing multi-million-dollar initiatives and advising CEOs and COOs across Asia Pacific - environments where executive presence isn’t optional, it’s the difference between being heard… or being overlooked.

His leadership also spans complex, high-stakes domains including anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing, where he led cross-functional teams of project managers, developers, and testers to build high-performing solutions - requiring precision, trust, and steady communication in pressure-filled environments.


And behind that global leadership story is something even more grounding: Leroy also knows what it means to start from zero. He immigrated to Canada with his family with no job, no network, and only their suitcases and belief that they could build something meaningful. That lived experience - of identity, resilience, and reinvention - is exactly why his teaching on presence is so real, so human, and so applicable.

Elite Education, Certifications & Leadership Mastery

Leroy’s teaching is backed by rare depth: elite executive education, rigorous coaching credentials, and world-class negotiation and change mastery - combined with decades of real-world application.


✅ Harvard Business School (Executive Program) – Driving Organizational Agility

✅ Harvard University (Executive Program) – Leadership Excellence in Strategy & Innovation

✅ Harvard Law School (Program on Negotiation) – Negotiation & Mediation Specialization (2 semesters)

✅ ICF - Professional Certified Coach (PCC)

  • Neuro-Linguistic Programming Business Practitioner

  • Erickson Solution-Focused Coach Certificate


✅ Workplace Mental Health & Psychological Safety Leadership

  • Workplace Mental Health Leadership Program — Queen’s University

  • Certified Psychological Health & Safety Advisor — CMHA


This is why Leroy’s executive presence work is never about ego or dominance - it’s about clarity, trust, and psychologically safe influence.


✅ Change, Agile, Facilitation & Leadership Execution Credentials

  • Prosci® Certified Change Practitioner (ADKAR)

  • PMI Agile Certified Practitioner (PMI-ACP®)

  • Certified Facilitator™ (CAF) — from executive boards to 800+ audiences

  • Scrum / Product / Lean expertise (including CSP-SM, CSP-PO, A-CSM, A-CSPO, CSM, CSPO, Lean Practitioner)


He is also recognized as one of the top combined holders in Canada for Agile + Scrum credentials - a reflection of his ability to turn leadership concepts into practical execution habits.

Teaching Style - Human, Grounded, and Deeply Practical

What makes Leroy different isn’t just what he knows - it’s how he teaches.

Students often describe his style as:

  • Clear without being rigid

  • Direct without being harsh

  • High standards without pressure

  • Deeply human without being abstract

Leroy has a gift for reading the room - whether it’s a small executive committee or an amphitheatre of 800 people - and helping people feel both challenged and supported. He teaches executive presence the way it should be taught: not as performance, but as alignment.


He doesn’t just help you speak better. He helps you think more clearly, regulate your nervous system under pressure, and communicate with the calm authority that leaders trust.


🎯 Why He’s the Perfect Guide for This Course


Executive presence is the missing link between merit and opportunity - and Leroy has lived that truth from every angle:

  • Rising quickly through executive ranks in high-pressure global environments

  • Advising senior leaders where credibility was tested daily

  • Building a business from scratch as an immigrant entrepreneur

  • Coaching leaders to show up with confidence, clarity, and influence — without losing authenticity

This is exactly what this course delivers:Gravitas. Communication. Presence - in person and virtually - with a modern, inclusive edge.
