People like certainty. Commit to your words. Use committed words like can’ and ‘will’ not ‘might’ and ‘hopefully’. And make sure that your verbal and physical emphasis reinforces the words. Emphasis amplifies. #impact #charisma #commitment

How we feel in the moment starts with how we’re set. Posture is presence. It’s hard to command a room in a slouch. It’s hard to speak up if your focus is the floor. Stand tall. Feel present. Look strong. Whoever you are. #posture #presence #confidence #impact

Only a fool@stands up for everything. Pick your battles, look at things from multiple perspectives, choose facts over opinions and check your emotions and biases. That’s wisdom. #wisdom #personalimpact #charisma

Get better at making your point by spending a little more time planning what you’re going to say and anticipating what you might have to say. Just like a stand-up comedian prepares put-downs for hecklers long before she needs them. Be ready. #personalimpact #charisma

There’s no such thing as a boring voice, just a person speaking without energy and emphasis. Don’t force it, don’t overplay it, just get your energy in the right place. #energy #charisma #personalimpact

I have never known such love and support in my life than I’m getting this morning (England World Cup goals aside, possibly). I want to thank each and every one of you. It means a lot. I’ll continue to try and speak up for those poor souls that have no voice. Cheers all. 👊🏻
