Career Coach Debbie Matson hosted a discussion with alumni on the power of gravitas and executive presence in the workplace. They explored how gravitas isnโt a trait youโre simply born with. Itโs a skill that can be intentionally developed across any industry, from military and finance to tech and social impact.
