About this video

He draws on research and personal experience as an introvert who overcame his fear of public speaking to build his brand.

Key takeaways

• Centeno recommends visualization techniques used by professional athletes and musicians to mentally rehearse conversations and presentations before they happen
• Centeno teaches that maintaining 60-70% eye contact during conversations makes people feel heard and remembered, and suggests looking at someone’s eyebrow if direct eye contact feels uncomfortable
