You don’t need to walk into a room to own it. Your presence shows up before you do—even on Zoom.
Whether you’re in sweatpants or a blazer, your energy is contagious. People feel it through the screen. Show up with clarity, confidence, and connection—and you’ll lead the room from anywhere.

Thank you for the suggestions. Have social anxiety so I am sure they will help for that also.
Great tips, even for someone who is retired. Even in casual video chats I can see how this would be beneficial.
When I went to meeting (online or in person) I would be quite at first. After getting the feel for the group I would slowly enter the conversations. Eventually, I became someone who knew what she was doing, and them became the go-to person.
Excellent reminder! I think we have gotten a little sloppy since Zooms have become the norm since the pandemic.
