🦹‍What can a supervillain teach you about executive presence? Quite a bit, actually.

Join Women in Lighting (WiL) at the 2026 ALA Conference for The Supervillain’s Guide to Executive Presence, an interactive keynote presentation with Stacee Mandeville.

Stacee will use the bold clarity and commanding style of the supervillain archetype to explore what it really takes to:

• Communicate with confidence
• Command a room without overcompensating
• Make your message resonate and stick
• Stay grounded in high-stakes conversations

No scripts. No personas. Just practical shifts you can put to work right away.
