A seconds-scale daily micro-practice for Presence (VCoL collection): In the 30 seconds before entering a meeting or starting a call, pause. Let go of what you were just doing with an exhale. Arrive mentally in the room. Notice who is present. Set an intention to listen and contribute fully. Practised many times a day, with a brief evening reflection, until the move becomes automatic.
