In this episode of Journeys of Not So Ordinary People, Dr. Dave Peltz and Dr. Joe Hamlett welcome communication expert and prolific author Dianna Booher, who shares her insights on creating executive presence. Dianna explains that executive presence is built on four key areas: what people see (body language, posture, attire), how they think (response to unexpected situations), how they speak (clarity, confidence), and their overall reputation and behavior over time.
