Manage it...or someone else will.
| | Every room has a rhythm. | A tempo. | A certain current that pulls people into urgency, reactivity, performance, or calm. | Most people just get swept into it. | They match the energy. Mirror the pace. | Respond without thinking. | And in doing so, they lose control of their influence. | But here's the truth most people never consider: | The pace of the room is set by you. | Not by force. | Not by dominance. | But by how you carry yourself. | The grounded person slows the room down…without needing to say much. | The clear person brings others into focus…without correcting anyone. | The calm person makes urgency feel unnecessary. | And people respond to that energy…instinctively. | Because leadership isn't always about decision-making. | It's about regulating the temperature of the environments you enter. | Holding your rhythm so clearly that the room aligns to you. | This doesn't mean you have to be the most senior voice. | Or the most experienced. | It means you operate with intention. | Your breath is slower. | Your tone is steady. | Your body language doesn't beg. | And your silence isn't awkward…it's calculated. | That's influence. | So here's your challenge this week: | Next time you walk into a room, business or personal, resist the urge to match it. | Instead, observe. | Then set the pace. | Make deliberate eye contact. | Pause before speaking. | Adjust your posture, your breath, your presence…and let the room follow. | Because people will feel it, even if they can't name it. | And in time, they'll start associating you with stability, strength, and leadership. | The best leaders don't chase control. | They carry rhythm. | To your greatness, | -James Michael Sama | P.S.: If you're looking for a private advisor to help you develop these qualities, let's talk. | |
