Summary

#x1C;Personal presence#x1D; is hard to define, but we know it when we see it. Someone walks into a room and people step aside. Heads turn. Conversation opens up to include them. They#x19;re in charge-of themselves and any situation. It#x19;s not a question of status symbols or position. Personal presence involves genuine character and relationship issues. It#x19;s not who you are-it#x19;s how you are, how you present yourself, how you act. Dianna Booher, an award-winning consultant to Fortune 500 companies, shows how anyone can master the skills and attitudes that will enable them to become compelling leaders and communicate with credibility and power.
