Executive presence is an elusive quality often sought after by leaders and admired in those climbing the corporate ladder. But it's more than just charisma or authority; it's a potent blend of traits that command respect, inspire trust, and project an image of capable leadership. But pinpointing its exact composition and cultivating it in yourself can be a tricky endeavor. A recent HBR survey and article (link in comments) sheds light on the evolving nature of executive presence, providing valuable insights for leaders looking to refine their leadership persona. Here's a breakdown of the survey's key takeaways: The New Rules of Executive Presence: 🔑 Core Continuity : The study reveals three core pillars of executive presence have remained consistent from 2012 to 2022: gravitas, strong communication skills, and "right" appearance.   🔑 Gravitas Redefined: Confidence and decisiveness still reign supreme, but inclusivity has emerged as a crucial element in the modern leadership landscape.   🔑 The "new normal" of Appearance: Gone are the days of needing the "next level" look. Authenticity and a "new normal" style, adaptable to both online and in-person settings, are the hallmarks of modern executive presence. Below are some of our added thoughts on Cultivating Your Executive Presence: ⭐ Customization is Key: The traits valued within your organization, industry, and culture will shape your development plan. Tailor your approach to fit the specific expectations and nuances of your environment.   ⭐ Seek Trusted Support: Mentors, coaches, sponsors, and other trusted partners can provide invaluable guidance in crafting a SMART plan, ensuring mindset alignment, holding you accountable, and fostering an authentic approach.   ⭐ Define Your Success: What does achieving executive presence look and feel like for you? Having a clear vision of your desired outcome will keep you motivated and on track.   Remember: Executive presence is not a one-size-fits-all formula. It's about understanding the expectations of your environment, harnessing your strengths, and developing a leadership style that resonates with your authentic self while inspiring, empowering, and gaining the trust of those around you. #wisdominbusiness #executivepresence #executivecoaching #leadershipdevelopment
