Episode 78: Mastering Presence & non-verbal communication with Salvatore Manzi
Description
Today I’m joined by Salvatore Manzi, a leadership communication coach and facilitator with decades of experience helping teams and leaders speak with clarity, confidence, and intention. We dive into what it really means to communicate well—beyond just the words we say.
What we explored in this episode:
Salvatore shares his three pillars of communication—content, delivery, and presence—and how we can strengthen each one to become more effective facilitators and speakers. We talk about his journey as an introvert learning to lead in the spotlight, and he offers brilliant metaphors (like “Perry the Perfectionist”) and practical tools you can use right away. Whether you're prepping for a meeting, workshop, or TEDx stage, this episode will shift how you think about speaking and showing up.
⚡️ Key Takeaways
Discover the 3 pillars of great communication: content, delivery, and presence.
Explore practical techniques for gestures, anchors, and body language (even on Zoom!).
Understand how to deal with your imposter voice—and why naming it helps.
Learn small shifts that boost presence, like the "first 10 seconds" eye contact rule.
