Credibility
Credibility has one important piece: expertise in your role.No level of executive presence can compensate for a lack of ability.
You need to be able to communicate your credibility to others. So once you’re sure you know your stuff, how can you work to better convey that?

- Make sure you aren’t fidgeting or using “props” in a meeting.
