KEYNOTE / PRESENTATION
Style as Strategy™
Rewriting the rules that shape how women show up and lead
For women in leadership roles, the pressure to appear polished and “appropriate” comes with a familiar, unspoken rulebook: play it safe, don’t stand out, wear black, make sure people notice your ideas, not your outfit. These norms reward neutrality, but often at the cost of visibility, authority, and influence.
In this keynote, corporate style strategist Susana Perczek offers a different approach. Drawing on her work with executives across industries, she shows how style can be used intentionally, not as decoration, but as a strategic leadership signal that supports credibility, presence, and advancement.
In this talk, leaders will learn how to:
Recognize the unspoken style rules that limit authority and visibility
Apply the Four Pillars of Style™ to make intentional leadership choices
Align appearance with role, influence, and career trajectory
