THE MASTER MOVE EXECUTIVE BRIEFING
How to think on your feet
Stay confident when you're put on the spot.
Wednesday 11th November 2026,
1pm UK time, 8am Eastern
You're in an important meeting when someone asks a question you weren't expecting. A colleague challenges your recommendation in front of others. Or you're suddenly asked for an answer you simply don't have.
You know you're an experienced, capable leader. But in those moments, finding the right words isn't always easy.
Maybe you start talking before you've worked out what you want to say. You might find yourself explaining far more than necessary, or you walk away afterwards thinking, “I wish I'd handled that differently!”
When you're in a senior leadership position, these moments matter. How you respond can strengthen your credibility and influence OR unintentionally undermine both!
Join me for November's free, live 45-minute Master Move Executive Briefing, where we'll explore how to handle those unexpected moments with greater confidence and authority.
We’ll explore three situations every senior leader needs to master:
1. How do you handle unexpected questions without panicking or rambling?
Discover what confident communicators do differently when they're caught off guard and why their response can make all the difference.
2. How do you respond when someone challenges you in front of others?
Find out what separates a confident response from one that unintentionally weakens your credibility.
3. How do you speak with authority when you don't have all the answers?
Discover why some leaders command respect even when they can't give an immediate answer, as well as what you can learn from them.
You'll leave with
-
Three practical techniques to help you respond more confidently under pressure
-
The ability to handle challenging questions without becoming defensive or losing your authority
-
One personal Master Move to put into practice the next time you're caught off guard
This briefing is designed for senior managers, directors and executives who regularly contribute to important meetings, influence decisions, present recommendations or handle challenging questions.
Whether you're speaking in a boardroom, leading a team discussion or responding to an unexpected challenge, you'll discover how to make those moments work for you, rather than against you.
I look forward to helping you make your Master Move!
