Executive presence is not how impressive you look: It is how safe people feel trusting you with something that matters.
In September 2026, Shiffy Srivastava, Executive Communication & Leadership Coach, conducted a session on Executive Presence with Directors and the Senior Leadership Team at EY.
The conversation went beyond how leaders speak, present or carry themselves.
It explored the real test of presence:
What happens when the pressure rises?
Can you bring clarity when everyone is confused?
Can you listen without preparing your defence?
Can you disagree without making the room defensive?
Can you say, “I don’t know,” without losing your authority?
Can you make a difficult message easier to hear?
That is presence.
And it isn’t built by simply telling leaders what to do.
It is developed through real conversations, real business situations and real moments of pressure.
That is why Shiffy’s approach has always been:
Practice Before Performance™️.
Because leadership is not tested when everything is going well.
It is tested in the moment when the room looks at you and waits.
What will you do with that moment?
That is Executive Presence.
That is Executive Presence.
