On the topic of charisma the vast majority of people got Robin Williams completely wrong and we’re going into that.

This episode is especially for you if you want

a) want to have more influence,

b) want to cultivate your own charisma

c) need a quick battery charge right now or

d) are tired of being looked over

Welcome to Speak Up, the podcast for high-performing introverts, including you social introverts, where we reveal the charisma & communication secrets of A-Listers so you get the recognition and opportunities you deserve.

I’m your host Laura Camacho, your magical communication godmother, coach, and strategist.

Take note that we now release episodes every Monday, Wednesday

and Friday.

For this episode I’m drawing from not only my own hard-earned knowledge base but also two recent guest episodes that go deeper into these topics: episode 222 with José Ucar, called Build Your Global Influence is fabulous and make sure you listen to last week’s episode 228 with songwriter Drew Lawrence called You Can Create Charisma.

To max out this charisma lesson here are 3 practices for you:

1. Focus on warmth and personal connection. Remember that the next time you want to show others charisma.

For now, don’t worry about presence or credibility, that’s what most of us tend to over index on.

Focus on showing warmth.

2. Share your bloopers. In your stories and even work presentation, share specific aspects of yourself and your experiences, NOT trying to be perfect.

Of course at work your experience needs to relate to your topic.

But say you’re talking about trustworthy AI, share a funny story where you got a crazy response from some generative AI platform.

3. Charisma can be rehearsed a la Robin Williams. Start observing what are the specific characteristics you see that make a person come across as charismatic.
