Do people often mimic the way you dress, speak or make points in discussions? The latter is particularly telling. Because it could be hidden, you have to look for clues. We’ve discussed how influence, like charisma, can be a valuable trait you’re born with and you might not even know it. From there, it’s up to you to shape it like Rodin or Kindergartener. In any case, feedback from others will help you understand the raw, unshaped ‘clay’ of your presence. Is it the way you look or dress? Is it your body language or how you greet people? Moreover, is your presence positive or negative? These are questions for close friends or co-workers, but smiles and joyful greetings from others versus people jumping up and leaving when you walk in is a good indicator. What remains is to find out that unusual feature of your presence. But the fact you don’t feel like the Invisible Man when you walk into a room suggests people notice something unusual about you-even if it’s your friendly smile. You’ve got presence when you enter a room.In an important study, University of Toronto researchers developed and tested a scale of charisma that shows there are at least 6, tell-tale signs you could be a natural-born, charismatic person. That’s where some recent, behavioral science research comes in handy.
