Adjunct Professor Dr Louise Mahler CSP

Adjunct Professor at Federation University Australia

Melbourne, Australia

According to executives surveyed at American Express, Deutsche Bank and Ernst & Young, gravitas was found to be the dominant "pillar" of executive presence, with 67 per cent of the 268 senior executives surveyed placing it at the forefront. When we have gravitas we create greater influence and confidence as a leader.

With over 40 years experience and one of the most exciting female speakers on the global stage, Dr Louise Mahler captures the missing ingredient of leadership - your voice and body language - with enormous benefits for a leader's presence, influence and confidence. Obsessed with exceptional connection, she draws on the lost art of communication from ancient Rome and how leaders can use these techniques to create a competitive advantage at work.

Louise typically helps:
? Meeting planners who are looking for a highly engaging, insightful, hilarious and interactive keynote presentations at both live and virtual conferences and micro events
? C-Suite Executives looking to increase their confidence and presence in their leadership communication, media and high stakes communication and need 1:1 coaching
? Executive and Leadership teams needing a world class expert to help them lead change, inspire engagement and need a mix of workshops and coaching, from executive retreats to 12 month transformational programs.

Some of the specific areas she can assist with include:
? Leading with Gravitas
? Body-language, voice and voice/body/mind connection
? Presence, influence and leadership communication
? Difficult emotional situations, presentations, public speaking and media
? Women and Leadership
? Vocal Intelligence
? Presentation Skills
? Difficult situations
? Board engagement

Louise's PhD, Vocal Intelligence, won outstanding recommendations and her University's business award for innovation. She is a sought-after commentator discussing leadership, body language and effective presentation on television, radio and in the media. Her recent interviews with Channel 7 where she analyses the body language of Harry and Meghan Sussex have over 2 million views.

Louise's clients include Fortune 500 clients around the globe including BHP, Adobe, IBM, Gartner and Transdev and has been voted in the top 30 Global Gurus on body language and communication.

Louise was voted Keynotes Speaker of the Year in 2021 by the National Speakers Association and is the author of "Resonate: for people who need to be heard"

Resonate;
Penguin Random House
August 26, 2015
From Brisbane to Vienna and around the globe, Dr Louise Mahler has given voice a good name. She combines the skills gained from 15 years of an international opera-singing career, with insider knowledge of the corporate world and academic study, to help people from all walks of life express themselves through voice — to find their true, full voice and use it!

In Resonate Dr Louise Mahler, voice coach extraordinaire, demonstrates that your mind, body and voice are inextricably linked. By approaching voice through an understanding of the whole body, Louise explains how your state of mind determines the way you hold your body, how your feelings resonate through your voice and how this sequence ultimately influences the efficacy of your communication. She explains the most common ways people react to nerves or excitement, as well as how your listeners respond to your voice and gestures – and how to use these to communicate more powerfully.

Whether you struggle to make a point at work or a school committee meeting; whether you're going for the next big job or trying to improve your performance in the one you have; or you simply want better ways to communicate, Resonate will show you how to tune in to your own vocal intelligence, identify the physical and mental blocks that are holding you back, and reclaim your authentic voice. With its practical exercises, inspiring real-life stories and insightful tips, this book will unlock your confidence and show you how to make your message resonate.
