Journey to your Presence: Stage 1

How have elements of your past influenced your presence?

When exploring your presence, it can be useful to look at your background and environment and identify the people in your life who have made the greatest impression on you.

These could be parents, care-givers, schoolteachers, coaches, leaders, managers, friends or partners. For the purpose of this exercise, we will call these people “teachers”.

Below are some questions for you to explore for yourself. Try to do this exercise from your heart rather than your head, as this is where your presence radiates from.

  1. Who have been the most important “teachers” in your life?
  2. What stands out about them?
  3. What did you learn from them?
  4. Who are your heroes in history – and why? (think of three or four)
