Establishing a powerful presence is just as important in virtual meetings as it is face-to-face. In person, strong presence is conveyed through confident entrance, purposeful movement, and command over your personal space. In virtual environments, ensure your camera is positioned at eye level, use good lighting, and maintain a tidy, distraction-free background. Make a conscious effort to engage visually and verbally, using gestures and facial expressions to show attentiveness. Speak clearly, listen actively, and minimize interruptions. By being intentional about your presence in any setting, you convey authority, foster engagement, and reinforce your professional brand at every opportunity.
