I honestly wouldn't even know how to take that. It sounds like you are doing everything that you need to be doing. Seems to me like it is just a vague way to hold you back.
Agreed
I would evaluate your appearance and confidence as well as your skills. Often times people make snap judgments about our credibility and work based on appearance: think hair style, skincare, makeup choices (if applicable), fit of our clothes, etc.
Next time you hear something like that, respond with "Please elaborate." It's a vague statement, and perhaps the manager saying it was that way on purpose, to spare your feelings. A phrase like executive presence could refer to your appearance, your diction, your work ethic, just about anything that matters in business. Perhaps do some self-reflection and think about where you could improve. Work on your appearance, your language skills, your manners, or anything else where you feel you need some improvement.

Probably something like confidence. Executive presence is such a corporate buzz word.
