HOW does Joe BIDEN come ACROSS in person? – first person EXPERIENCE
‘….his comments were statesmanlike…. he had significant energy . . . he has a gravitas about him and that makes one stand out in a crowd these days.’
These comments were included in a recent Alan Weiss post, concerning Weiss’s face-to-face observation of U.S. Presidential aspirant Joe Biden.
I had heard that in person, Biden, always makes a strong, positive impression – and Weiss’s comments confirm what I’d heard. Weiss’ comments about Biden align to concepts I share with my senior executive clients.
Namely, to project energy, certainty and self-possession.
That projection helps my clients stand out in a crowd.

Here’s how to improve your projection of energy, certainty and self-possession, through improving your sitting and standing posture – so you STAND OUT in a crowd.
For the next seven days:
When SITTING at a table:
Feel the back of the chair; Have a long neck at the back; Imagine a string coming out of the top of your head and a puppeteer pulling it to the ceiling; Place your arms uncrossed on the table.
When STANDING
Have a long neck at the back; Imagine a string coming out of the top of your head and a puppeteer pulling it to the ceiling; Hang your arms at your sides.
