Ep 131: Executive Presence
“And so executive presence remains a mystery to so many people.”
“Today, leaders need to be able to show empathy, they need to thank their teams, their team members, and they need to just be patient and listen. And so, there's a whole list of different core competencies that we could talk about. But those are at the top of my list. And decisiveness is another one, being able to make decisions quickly, even if it's in the virtual world.”
