This episode hosted by Tracy Roberts and Martin Johnson, focuses on the concept of "executive presence".
Executive presence is defined as the qualities, characteristics, and behaviours that make a leader appear confident, capable, and influential, thereby inspiring trust and respect from others.
Tracy and Martin delve into six key areas that contribute to how individuals subconsciously evaluate a leader's executive presence. The initial discussion centers on the "contribution score," which assesses the impact and quality of a leader's contributions in various settings. This score encompasses two main components:
Delivery: This includes elements such as vocabulary, volume, pace, pitch, tone, clarity, body language, and non-verbal cues.
Impact: This refers to the ability to connect with others emotionally, and to deliver novel and memorable messages.
