Shiffy Srivastava conducted another Executive Presence session at EY
Today, Shiffy Srivastava conducted another Executive Presence session at EY, and one perspective from the session stood out:
Gravitas is not how impressive you appear.
It is how grounded you remain when the room gets difficult.
The conversation went beyond posture, voice or presentation skills.
Leaders explored what happens when pressure rises — when you are challenged, interrupted, questioned or expected to make a difficult call.
That is where executive presence becomes visible.
Shiffy brought this into practice through coaching moments around pausing before responding, listening without preparing the next answer, holding a point without becoming defensive, and speaking with clarity rather than urgency.
The interesting shift?
The focus moved from:
“How do I look like a leader?”
to:
“How do I create confidence in others when I lead?”
That is a much deeper definition of gravitas.
Executive presence is not about occupying the room.
It is about changing the quality of the room through how you show up.
Another thoughtful, practical session with leaders at EY.

Confidence Is Built Through Practice
Shiffy challenges the idea that fluent English automatically means Confidence.

The objective isn't perfect English.
It is Confident expression.
From Nervous to Natural
Communication Confidence develops through repetition.
Speak. Practice. Reflect. Improve. Repeat.
