PRESENCE

WHAT IS PRESENCE?

POISE UNDER PRESSURE.

Presence is poise and confidence, the natural result of the other four practices working together. It's how you carry yourself when it counts: composed, prepared, and fully there. It's being comfortable in your own skin and not trying to be someone else, because you know you're doing the right things. It includes a firm handshake, combed hair, speaking clearly, good posture, arriving early, making conversation, and sending thank-you notes. It's also being respected by others. Presence is the total package.
