“I used to say of him (Napoleon) that his presence on the field made the difference of 40,000 men.”
- Arthur Wellesley, 1st Duke of Wellington
Have you ever been in a spot and something about a certain person in the room drew you in and completely captivated you? Was it the level of that person’s personal engagement in the scenario and conversations around them, or perhaps the way they articulated themselves that screamed out to you?

Researchers on this topic have found that certain people have been found to project out certain qualities to their audience. Some of these qualities have included candor, clarity, openness, passion, poise, self-confidence, and warmth.
But, what do these words mean? And how can we use them to become that person who exudes presence?
To simplify this process, we can break these words down even further and place them into buckets that will be easier to manage.
