About UKAUS Pty: http://www.ukaus.com/about/
1) Make people feel special
Charismatic leaders have the ability to make people feel like they are the most intelligent, impressive and fascinating person they have ever met. When in conversation, this can be portrayed by making the person feel like they are the only person who matters, and that they have their full attention.
2) Have a solid handshake
"A handshake is like a first impression, you only get one chance to do it right," said a spokesperson for UKAUS Pty. The firm argues that the right handshake can work wonders, and likewise the wrong handshake can make a really bad impression. Here the firm have outlined the 3 types of handshakes they have encountered:
- The Dead Fish: The serial offender, when someone's hand is extended to another but there is barely any movement in the shake.
- The Knuckle Cruncher: The knuckle cruncher happens when the violator uses too much force, usually someone who doesn't know their own strength, or someone who is trying to prove a point and wants to be taken seriously.
- The Dominant: The dominant is when the hand's palm is extended down, symbolising the offender as having the "upper hand."
3) Be in the moment
Professor at Harvard University, Daniel Gilbert conducted a survey that estimated the mind spends 46.9% of the time "wandering." UKAUS Pty believes that to become a charismatic leader, it is important for people to remain focused and stay in the moment. "It is important for someone to pay attention to what is going on around them instead of being caught up in their own thoughts," said a spokesperson for UKAUS Pty.
4) Become a good listener
In business, most people love to talk, however the best and most charismatic leaders talk less and listen more, claims UKAUS Pty. President John F. Kennedy was known as a "superb listener" who made others feel like he was "with them completely." To become a good listener the individual must ask questions and try to engage, whilst listening intently to the person's answers.
5) Know that there are different charisma styles
Everyone has their own personality, and therefore will have different leadership styles based on that. It's important to be authentic as people can tell when something is forced.
In business, mastering the art of leadership can be the difference between success and failure. At UKAUS Pty they help budding entrepreneurs enhance their leadership skills through optional weekly workshops and business seminars, providing them with the necessary skills and knowledge to be able to inspire people to follow them and work towards their vision.
