10 Aspects of Executive Presence

Genuine. Open, straightforward, comfortable in your skin; no sugar-coating.
Passion. You love and feel strongly about what you do and how you do it.
Clarity. Communicate thoughts, feelings, and insights in crystal clarity and simplicity.
Intelligence. No way around this one, and yes, it shows through.
Insight. Ability to boil complex factors and mounds of data down to rare conclusions.
Determination. Driven and full of purpose, determined to achieve and succeed.
Confidence. Not overconfident, but with enough self-doubt to be objective.
Humility. Willingness to admit mistakes, misjudgment, fear, and uncertainty is endearing.
Courage. Willingness to take risks and take a position against considerable odds.
Humour. Not over-the-top, but in the right measure, brings down other’s defences.
