Executive Presence

Episode: 10 Present Like a Rockstar….Virtually – Shannon Polly

Preparing to present? Think about: 1. Your intention, preferably a strong infinitive verb (to motivate, to inspire) 2. Your attention, being ready to be focused on what’s happening 3. Your tension, remembering that nobody else knows you’re nervous! 4. Your facial muscles. They need to be warmed up just like an athlete’s body before a race.

Episode 40: SARI Stories – Senia Maymin

Senia Maymin describes a way to tell stories about yourself in a job interview or customer meeting in a humble, truthful, and powerful way. She calls these SARI stories, and she walks us through one she’d tell about herself. S = Situation. That gives drama before you even start talking about what you did. A = Action. What step did you take to address the situation? R = Result. What happened as a result of your action? How did the situation change? I = Interesting observation. These can be quirky and fun! Often when she’s working with someone, she first asks about Results and then moves back to help them vocalize Situation and Action.
