Adjusting your tone to be more authoritative and serious can help you present yourself as an authority figure and have others perceive you more positively. Try speaking slower, making deliberate pauses, and projecting your voice with authority. Additionally, make sure your body language exudes confidence – stand tall with a strong posture and maintain eye contact while speaking.

You can adjust your tone by speaking more slowly and clearly and using higher-pitched vocal flourishes like "ums" and "ers," which convey hesitancy. Convey confidence in your opinions by staying on topics you are knowledgeable about, looking others in the eye when making points, pausing occasionally to let others discuss instead of monopolizing every conversation, and smiling often.
