How different is the executive presence depending on the industry?

Executive presence is "the ability to project confidence, balance under pressure and decision," as well as "communication, including speaking skills, assertiveness and the ability to read an audience or situation, and appearance. "  

The executive presence depending on the industry

Depending on your industry, you should also look at your own individual appearance. But more important how you stand out intellectually and very important when you are improving your executive presence.

• Depending on the industry, individual appearance must be seen.   But more important than how you you wear   How do you stand out intellectually. It can also be very important when the executive presence is improving.  

• Executive Presence ", in general terms, has something unique for each industry/company/ department that must be done, so you will have to adapt your approach to your situation and grow with it, revising it every year or every time you change roles in a team or work. (Chris Mills - Director of Operations, BNP Paribas).

• It should be noted that if the executive presence is closely related to administrative activities and the first is very important for the second, the concept of executive presence is not the same as the administration.

• Warren Bennis, writing about the executive presence, to exaggerate the difference, has said that most organizations are outdated and not managed.   A person can be an effective administrator (good planner and administrator), fair and organized, but lacks the executive presence skills to motivate.   Other people can be an effective executive presence, with the ability to unleash enthusiasm and devotion, but lack the management skills to channel the energy they unleash on others.

• Faced with the challenges of the dynamic commitment of the current world of organizations, many of them appreciate more the managers who also have an executive presence.

• Every great leader has something in common.   They have gravitas, that is, they have an executive weight, a presence that people respect and want to follow.   Yes, they also need to have intellectual abilities and competencies. But without gravitas, executives can fight to lead.   As says a friend of mine, a leader without followers is someone who walks.     So how does one develop gravitas or teach others how to improve theirs?
