Nobody remembers how professional you were.

You worry about what to say at your big meeting. After all, it's an opportunity that doesn't come round every day, and you want to shine. You don't want to mess this up. You practice, think, and think some more and get this uneasy feeling.

It's so easy to get pulled into worry when we face an opportunity to be seen, felt and heard.

So here is a useful reminder - nobody remembers exactly what you said. Nobody hires you because you got all your slides tip top. Nobody dies when you stumble over a sentence.

What they do remember is not all about you. Because everyone is in THEIR OWN experience. So they remember how THEY felt when they were with you. What can you do to create a true experience for them?

For starters, shift into the gift of your unique energy. In other words, chill. Imagine yourself with your best friends - that's when you are relaxed and shine naturally - can you bring some of that "you" to the table? Everyone appreciates feeling comfortable, trusted and loved.

With that energy present, bring your professional acumen. Watch deals roll in.

Being professional today is to be really human. Viva modern leadership.
