Topic: Presence and Gravitas

Gravitas, a sense of 'weight or authority', is often thought as a natural ability, something you've either got or you haven't. But with practice, and by understanding our inner voice (and where the volume knob is), we can all boost our sense of gravitas — and quickly elevate our sense of presence, feeling more confident to communicate and with a heightened sense of authority.

And there’s much we can learn from others too, defining the specific behaviours of those who seem to carry themselves with a perpetual state of confidence — and thinking how we could authentically channel a bit more of that ourselves.
