Do you know any synonyms for 'poised' or the concept of 'being' quietly confident'? Β 

One of those times a definition I knew a word for pops up into my head, but the associated word doesn't. Jarring!

Cool can mean poised (and a few other things).

Since you didn't really ask for a single word how about "self-assured" or "self-confident" ?

I like 'She's got moxie ! ' though it seems associated with gangsters- could be my own misimpression from some gangsters movies.
