In this episode of Small Business School, Staci sits down with Anjali Handa, leadership coach, corporate trainer, and creator of the Powerful Presence Workshop, to unpack why presence (not performance) is the missing piece for so many entrepreneurs.

Drawing from her experience training corporate leaders and leading transformational seminars for hundreds of people, Anjali shares how small business owners can develop the same level of confidence, clarity, and authority without needing a corporate budget.

Key topics covered:

Why visibility is the most important skill for entrepreneurs in 2026
The key differences between corporate leadership training vs entrepreneurial skill development
Why most small business owners approach growth reactively instead of proactively
The concept of presence vs performance and how it changes everything
How quickly people form impressions (hint: it’s faster than you think)
Why humility does not mean shrinking
The hidden ways entrepreneurs play small in their messaging and delivery
How in-person experiences are making a major comeback in business
Why how you say something matters just as much as what you say
The role of visibility in driving revenue (and why it’s not just about access to capital)
How presence impacts leadership, team dynamics, and client relationships

As business continues to shift back toward human connection and in-person interaction, your ability to show up with confidence, clarity, and authenticity will set you apart.
