What does leadership style mean—beyond titles and skills—in the development of executive leadership?
“We don’t need more leaders with titles—we need leaders with posture. Leadership effectiveness is not defined by title or competencies, but by the ability to take responsibility and shape meaningful impact within a system,” says Marjorie Poitras, executive coach and leadership advisor with more than three decades of organizational experience.
Titles may confer authority, but Marjorie believes leadership development cannot end with skills or performance habits. It has to reach the deeper human level where leaders recalibrate their posture and act with purpose and intent.
Across industries and seniority levels, Marjorie observes that executives are not constrained by a lack of capability, but by the growing complexity of their environment, competing priorities, systemic tensions, ambiguity and decisions with far-reaching impact on both performance and people.
Marjorie highlights that in these moments, leadership is not developed through training or tools alone, but through deeper shifts in awareness and posture.
