Your work is serious. Does your image say so before you speak?
A practical styling system for women founders and executives. Audit your presence, define your signature, build a capsule for every room and walk in ready.
Sound familiar?
You open your closet before a big meeting and still feel like you have nothing to wear.
Your headshot, Zoom frame and stage look tell three different stories about one brand.
You know you are the expert in the room, yet first impressions undersell you.
Presence is a system you can build, and this workbook walks you through it decision by decision.
A working session, on paper.
You will finish with a presence score, a defined signature palette and silhouette, a CEO capsule mapped to the rooms you actually walk into, and a 30-day plan to close the gap between how you lead and how you are perceived.
The Executive Presence Audit
Score yourself across image, polish, camera and delivery so you know exactly where perception lags behind your actual level.
Signature Color and Silhouette
Body-shape-neutral principles for contrast, proportion and fit, so you choose colors and shapes that read as authority on you.
The CEO Capsule Wardrobe
A closet audit, capsule planner and occasion matrix covering boardroom, stage and camera, client dinner and travel.
Grooming and Polish Standards
Set your non-negotiable baseline and a maintenance calendar so polish becomes automatic instead of a last-minute scramble.
On-Camera and Photo Presence
Frame, light and dress for Zoom, headshots and social so every digital touchpoint matches the woman in the room.
Body Language, Voice and the Pre-Event Checklist
Simple delivery habits plus a repeatable checklist that removes guesswork before every high-stakes appearance.
Every chapter ends with something you fill in.
188+ fillable fields: scorecards, worksheets and planning tables you complete as you read.
When you finish, you will have
A presence score and the two gaps costing you the most credibility
A written signature palette, silhouette and set of style words
A capsule plan that dresses you for every room you lead in
A pre-event routine and 30-day plan you can start this week
