The skills that are best related to executive presence are the skills required to be excellent at public speaking. 🎤
Executive presence is about presenting your ideas so they can be heard, and this requires persuasive speaking and language skills, clear concise sentences, imitating words and body language of the audience you are addressing so they feel part of the discussion.
