  • The 7 Seconds That Shape Your Leadership: The Psychology of Executive Presence

    Khewna Dawar, Leadership and Human Behavior Expert, The Growth Lab Show

    TOPIC CATEGORY: Business

    Executive presence is often misunderstood as confidence, charisma, or polished communication — but in reality, it is a psychological signal. In the first seven seconds of any interaction, people form rapid judgments about your credibility, warmth, leadership potential, and trustworthiness. In this session, Khewna Dawar breaks down the behavioral science behind those split-second impressions and reveals how leaders can intentionally shape the way they show up every day. MORE >

    Drawing from organizational psychology and her work coaching teams and leaders, Khewna exposes the common behaviors that quietly weaken executive presence: inconsistent communication, reactive emotional cues, lack of clarity, and a mismatch between intention and impact. She introduces a practical, evidence-based framework that helps leaders strengthen presence through self-awareness, emotional regulation, and strategic communication — not performative tactics.

    Leaders will leave with actionable tools to elevate how they enter rooms, hold space, communicate under pressure, influence diverse audiences, and build trust across teams. This session is designed for modern leaders who want to move beyond surface-level confidence and build a deeper, more authentic and sustainable form of presence — one that inspires followership, strengthens culture, and amplifies leadership effectiveness.

  • Your Communication Is Your Culture — Here’s How Leaders Get It Wrong (and Right)

    Khewna Dawar, Leadership and Human Behavior Expert, The Growth Lab Show

    TOPIC CATEGORY: Business

    In today’s workplace, culture is no longer defined by posters on the wall or leadership statements — it is shaped, moment by moment, through communication. Every email, meeting, message, and micro-interaction creates a psychological climate that either builds trust and clarity or fuels confusion and disengagement. In this session, Khewna Dawar unpacks the behavioral science behind how leaders unintentionally communicate the wrong signals, even with the right intentions, and how small shifts in language, presence, and awareness can transform a team’s performance. MORE >

    Grounded in organizational psychology and real-world leadership experiences, this presentation reveals the hidden patterns that undermine culture: misaligned expectations, inconsistent messaging, psychological unsafety, and the gap between what leaders say and what teams actually hear. Khewna offers a practical, actionable framework that helps leaders redesign their communication to drive connection, accountability, and high trust.

    Leaders will walk away with tools they can apply immediately — including techniques to navigate difficult conversations, create clarity under pressure, and communicate with presence and emotional intelligence. This session is ideal for organizations looking to elevate leadership effectiveness, strengthen team cohesion, and build a culture where people can grow, perform, and thrive.
