Thanks for sharing! What a clear and practical breakdown. I have seen so many people confuse executive presence with superficial polish, thinking it is just about speaking well or looking the part. In my experience, the real magic is in building trust under pressure. When things go wrong and everyone is watching, do you stay calm and give direction? That moment reveals everything about your presence.
