Introverts: Learn How to Maximize Your Power Words to Increase Your Executive Presence

Executive presence is often described as one of those things that you recognize when you see it. And when you see it, it looks effortless. In a meeting, for example, those who have it exude confidence, they influence, and they possess that mysterious X factor – whatever that is. But what if that’s not you? What if, in meetings, you find it challenging to convey your ideas, speak your opinion, or disagree with other leaders? What if it is a struggle to assert your point of view, and even worse, when you know you have something important to say, but don’t have the courage to say it?

Don’t panic. Executive presence is not some magical ability you are either born with or not. Research shows the skills and nuances of executive presence can be learned. And being strategic about when you speak up and what you say is the single best measure of executive presence and a great starting point.

One of my executive coaching clients uses this primer in every meeting. Before he struggled to assert his opinion and break into conversations, especially when the stakes were high.

You’re the only one who thinks the way you do, and that’s what makes sharing your knowledge, insights, analysis, and recommendations so critical.
