Just like professionals refresh their wardrobe, we also need to refresh our virtual studios to match our personal brand. Today is devoted to your virtual communication, how your on-screen presence either amplifies or undermines the impact you’re working so hard to make. If you want to accelerate your career in 2026, you will need to boost your on-camera technique. When your virtual meetings are as effective as your in-person meetings, you save time and money and dramatically expand your reach. Imagine how much wider your network becomes when you can connect globally with confidence. High-visibility professionals need strong on-camera technique: your background, colors, and contrast shape what people notice first, and your setup quietly sends signals about your credibility before you ever speak. In this episode, I walk you through the visual and structural choices that shape how others experience you on screen: from lighting, audio, and framing to the subtle habits that weaken or strengthen your presence. You’ll hear how to upgrade your virtual space so it feels intentional, aligned with your brand, and worthy of the opportunities you’re pursuing. Great virtual communication doesn’t happen by accident; it’s created thoughtfully, consistently, and with a clear point of view about how you want to be experienced. How you speak is how you lead. Want to join us in 2026? We start in January. Take a look at www.speakbydesign.com/join . That's our leadership communication program that includes private, group, and on-demand learning.
