(and How to Fix It)
Presented by Preston Poore
June 12, 2025
2-3pm EST
Even the best CEOs have a dirty little secret: they wonder if they actually belong in the big chair. Closing The Confidence Gap tackles the quiet crisis of imposter syndrome—why it shows up, how it holds you back, and what to do about it.
You’ll walk away with practical tools to shut down self-doubt and lead with a clear head and steady hand. Whether you’re struggling yourself or want to help your team push past the same fear, this session is for you. It’s time to stop faking confidence—and start owning it.
This event is exclusively for our members and right now you can be a member for free through June 16. Two amazing perks, but you must be a member to watch the appinar live and get the replay!
Meet Preston Poore
After working in upper-level management for companies like Coca-Cola and Hershey’s and small business ownership, I long to convey my hard-won leadership knowledge to the Christian community.
My thirty-plus years of experience have positioned me to write and speak on the paramount importance of leadership, discipleship, and communication and how those necessary abilities translate from the secular marketplace to the church.
Authentic, inspiring, and results-oriented in my work leading teams of dozens to hundreds, I bring the same abilities to bear on my writing and speaking. Additionally, I have extensive training experience in personal and professional development after working with Dale Carnegie Training and becoming a John Maxwell certified executive coach, speaker, and trainer.
I hold an MBA from Samford University and a BS in Management from Colorado State University.
My wife, Carla, and I live in the Atlanta metro area, and we have two children, Caroline and Benton. During my spare time, I like to work out, bike, boat, write, read, and travel.
