Gravitas
Timeless skills to communicate with confidence and build trust
Gravitas is often considered a key factor for gaining influence and making an impact. Yet so many people struggle to communicate well, let alone with gravitas.
The modern model has left us wanting. 75% of people have a fear of public speaking exacerbated by contemporary modes of virtual and hybrid communication. And with gaping holes in our training is it any wonder that we’ve lost the ability to communicate with excellence? That we’ve lost our gravitas?
In Gravitas, you’ll discover a new model of communication that will lead to better communication and greater gravitas. We look to the timeless wisdom from the orators of ancient Greece and Rome for whom gravitas was a learned skill powered by choice and gained through action.
Combining the wisdom of the ancients, modern leadership principles and Dr. Mahler’s unique experience on the stage, Gravitas unpacks essential speaking skills, strategies and techniques to help you communicate effectively and with confidence.

What’s Gravitas about?
What does the word ‘gravitas’ mean today? In ancient Rome, it was the trust and respect cultivated by capable, strong leadership. But in today’s world we mistakenly believe it’s an innate quality owned by only a few exceptional communicators.
In Gravitas: Timeless Skills to Communicate with Confidence and Build Trust, communications expert Dr. Louise Mahler breaks the paradigm around our modern understanding of gravitas and communication. She showcases the ancient view of gravitas as an essential key to winning over an audience and communicating effectively. And she shows us how the ancient virtue of gravitas can be learned and can help you transform your presence and impact today.
It’s time that we re-learn what the ancients knew to bring back confidence, trust and authority to our delivery today – whether in a one-to-one meeting or facing a large crowd.
Gravitas unpacks the essential speaking skills, strategies and techniques that the greatest communicators use to share their message most effectively. In Gravitas, you’ll discover a new model of communication based on timeless wisdom. It’s a model that anyone can implement easily, to gain back those feelings of confidence and trust which are vital to communicating well.
This book is for you if you’re worried your voice is not being heard, that you lack confidence or that your communication is weak or ineffective. If you’re feeling this way, it’s important to know that you’re not alone.
There’s a new model you can apply to overcome this struggle and elevate your own gravitas and they’re right here in this book!
