Through our wide range of executive coaching and training offerings, Edelman Canada helps Canada’s senior business leaders up their game and feel confident, prepared and in control. 

Executive Edge 

Effective executive transitions empower strategic leaders and drive substantial business growth in today’s dynamic corporate landscape. Developed to support executives transitioning into the dynamic Canadian business environment, Executive Edge is not just a training program—it’s a catalyst for impactful leadership. 

Our team of seasoned experts have developed a program that delivers:

  • Swift Impact — Research indicates that 60% of executives take up to six months to fully acclimate to their new roles. Our program is engineered to expedite this period, ensuring leaders make a significant impact from the outset.
  • Customized Learning — Tailored to your industry, we deliver high-impact, high-value content that reflects your company values and showcases the work your team has been doing.
  • Strategic Partnerships — In collaboration with your team, we sculpt a curriculum that enhances an executive's comprehension of the Canadian corporate landscape, fostering a robust foundation for integration. 

Training 

We arm business leaders and client or public-facing employees with the tools they need to effectively manage media interviews and presentations, regardless their nature or setting, and to manage difficult conversations with authority and confidence.

  • Media Training: Our customized media training program provides participants with a firm understanding of the media landscape in Canada, while empowering them with the tools and techniques needed to navigate an interview. We also offer communications professionals practical tips for building media and communications strategy, teach them how to pitch reporters effectively, how best to manage and grow media relationships, and how to mine for stories and stay plugged into the news cycle in ways relevant to their business.
  • Presentation Training: When a speaker truly connects with their audience, it creates moments of transformation. Edelman’s executive presentation training program has been designed with principles of human connection at its core. Our proven approach empowers executives with the tools and techniques needed to build valuable connections while effectively communicating a compelling narrative regardless of if their audience is in the room or on camera.
