Charisma

Charisma

Charisma is the beautiful Greek word meaning favored or gifted with grace.  My simple definition is likable and friendly. Cool.  Charisma is often hard to define, similar to "coolness" many people either have it or they don't. People with charisma attract others and are often leaders.  

With this raucous election season, and looking back on past elections you can see a connection between voters and charisma.  Not always, but in most instances try and determine who is the more likable candidate. You will find that person usually ends up winning. 

Charisma comes naturally to some folks while others can develop the trait by being self effacing, generous, and humble.  Leaders place others before themselves, have a genuine interest in helping their teams achieve and grow, and are invested in their success.

A little kindness, more listening, and a smile go along way to creating our own personal charisma.

With Love,
