"Executive presence" is the most overused—and undefined—feedback Black women leaders receive. In this episode, I break down why executive presence advice is failing Black women, what it's really hiding, and what actually gets you promoted. If you've ever been told to "work on your presence" without specific, actionable feedback, this episode is for you.

What You'll Learn:

  • Why "executive presence" is not a leadership competency (and that's by design)
  • The moving goalpost: How feedback changes every time you "fix" something
  • What the term is really hiding (hint: it's not about you)
  • The difference between presence and POWER
  • What actually gets Black introverted women promoted to executive levels
