Executive Presence feels like one of those mysterious qualities.

You know when someone has it - but you can't work out why.

That’s what we've just spent the day unpacking with the LEAD Network at LSEG, delivering an all-day workshop on executive presence, gravitas and confident leadership communication as part of their Hispanic Heritage Month programme.

Because it's not magic - it shows up in very practical ways. How you enter a room, the pace at which you speak, how emotionally regulated you are, how clearly you make your point.

These things matter more and more as we climb the ladder - and actually, they are very learnable skills.

Huge thanks to Johanna Armas and Samara Ramos Negrette for inviting Fearless to be part of the programme, and to everyone who threw themselves into the day.

Next stop: Tokyo! We were in Japan training speakers for Stripe’s customer event last week.

There’s something we particularly love about working on customer events. You get to see the whole thing before anyone else does, helping speakers shape their stories, rehearse product demos and get into show mode before taking the stage.

And then, of course, the big day arrives and we see how the audience responds.

We really enjoyed working with the Tokyo team and seeing it all come together.

Last week, we were in China! It was very exciting to deliver training in Shanghai, at the glamorous Shangri-La Qiantan hotel.

We coached speakers to prepare them for their 1000+ customer event, helping them get comfortable on stage, sharpen their delivery and make the most of this fabulous keynote room.

The hardest part of a difficult conversation is usually the first sentence.

If you start in the right way, the rest tends to follow.

So here are some exact phrases we teach in our training. Please steal them.

Stating your opinion assertively:
'Based on what we've learnt about what customers want, I think the best way forward would be to...'

Not knowing the answer to a question:
'Let me find out and come back to you on that later. In the meantime, I can tell you what I do know about this topic which could be useful...'

Asking your boss to stop interfering in a meeting:
'I'm grateful for your support with this project. I think I can do a better job if I can lead the meeting as that would help me to feel more confident in presenting our strategy. Would that be okay?'

How to escape someone at a networking event:
'It was great meeting you, let's keep in touch. I'll let you get on and meet some more people!'

The right words, practised out loud, make these conversations so much easier.

Speaking on a panel is not the same as giving a presentation. There's no script, no slides, and no control over where the conversation goes.

That's exactly why preparation matters more, not less.
When we coach panellists, these are the six things we drill into them:

- Be relevant, entertaining and controversial
- Be concise
- Show other panellists' opinions respect
- Address the audience as well as the panellists
- Be aware of body language when you're not speaking
- Hang around the stage afterwards so people can find you

Treat a panel like a speech.

Be clear on the key message you want to leave the audience with, and have stories and case studies ready to back it up.

Do you find yourself avoiding giving feedback as a manager because it's too hard to be honest?

You're not alone.

People who you manage want feedback more than you realise.

When managers find the courage to have difficult conversations, they don’t weaken relationships - they build trust. They help their team perform better, grow faster and feel clearer about what’s expected of them.

Here are 5 things to remember next time you need to share some difficult feedback...

Excitement and fear come from the same physiological response - the difference is how you channel it.😮‍💨

With something as simple as controlled breathing, nerves can shift into focus energy and even excitement.✨

Difficult conversations are often avoided - yet they’re usually the ones that matter most. 💬

For L&D and HR teams, building confidence in this area can have a real impact on performance, relationships and team effectiveness.

The good news? This is a skill your team can learn.

In our Mastering Difficult Conversations course, participants develop the tools and mindset to approach these moments with clarity, confidence and empathy - from giving effective feedback to managing conflict and handling challenging client conversations.

💡 If you want to equip your team to handle tough conversations constructively and turn them into opportunities for progress, this course is a powerful place to start.

Our founder Carrie Swift was asked by Stylist Magazine to share advice how to use your voice at work to help create a 'speak-up culture' - particularly in meetings, where people often hold back on saying what they really think.

Here are a couple of tips she shared.... 💡

1️⃣ BLUF: Bottom Line Up Front

If you want to get known as someone who adds value to the discussion in meetings, remember the rule of BLUF - start with your main point, then explain your reasoning.

Too often we warm up with context and lose the room before we land the message. Senior leaders do the opposite. They lead with clarity, which is why their points land quickly and decisively.

2️⃣ Managers: Speak last

If you’re the most senior person in the room, you’re shaping the discussion more than you realise. Even a small comment can unintentionally steer direction.

Try this instead:

🎯 Pose the question
🎯 Give everyone 60 seconds thinking time
🎯 State: “I’m interested in hearing everyone's views, so I'm going to speak last so I don’t set the direction.”
🎯 Go round the table and listen

You’ll get more diversity of thought, stronger ideas and as a result, more balanced decisions. ✅
