Your entire professional career and leadership journey play out in a moment. Okay—not one moment, but a series of moments. Strong communication and presence are built a brick at a time, just like a great big structure—and those bricks are moments.
If you think about it, the future isn’t here yet, so it doesn’t really exist. The past did exist, but it doesn’t anymore. The only thing that exists is this present moment. And the way you show up—with confidence, clarity, and authentic communication—has a huge impact on your success.
So I’m talking about executive presence. I’m talking about your personal brand and presence—the way you come across, your confidence, your warmth, and how you communicate your ideas. It’s how you make the case for the impact you want to create in the world through confident communication.
We plan for future moments and process past moments, and that’s fine. But this year can be a great year for you—and if it is, it’s going to be great because of what you bring to each client interaction, presentation, and leadership conversation.
So how do we define a great year, anyway? A great year is one where there’s meaningful progress, growth, and improvement in your communication and presence skills—not just when nothing goes wrong.
The truth is, every year brings challenges. Big transformations don’t happen overnight. But as you work toward those breakthroughs—building trust, developing professional presence, and strengthening your leadership communication—I want you to think about the power of a moment.
It’s easy to have a good moment. It’s easy to bring your best. You just have to focus on smaller chunks of time. You can have a great moment with a client, a great moment in a presentation, a great moment as you lead a team.
Authentic presence and confident communication live inside these moments. By building many good moments, you create a great day—and by stacking great days, you build a great week, month, and year.
So ask yourself: are you focusing on those building blocks? The foundation of your professional growth and your personal fulfillment are moments. Your presence, your ability to project confidence, warmth, and clear communication—that’s how you build success one moment at a time.
Focus on those elements. Practice presence and communication skills every day. Look at the power of a moment, and see if you can turn a single great moment into lasting confidence, stronger relationships, and an extraordinary year.
