Book IWD Speaker: Stephanie Tranquille

Celebrate International Women’s Day with SpeakerSteph: A Catalyst for Empowerment and Legacy | Speaker and Effective Communication Coach

This International Women’s Day, meet Stephanie Tranquille, known as SpeakerSteph - a global speaker, executive communication coach, and emotional intelligence educator whose work sits at the intersection of resilience, leadership, and human connection.
With more than 20 years of experience across finance, technology, and advertising, Stephanie has built a career helping leaders communicate with clarity, confidence, and influence. She has trained over 19,000 professionals globally and mentored senior leaders across some of the world’s most recognised organisations, equipping them to lead with authenticity in high-pressure environments.
Her journey spans both corporate and entrepreneurial success. At Amazon Web Services, Stephanie led flagship global events across 10+ countries. At Amazon Ads, she created and scaled a global speaker development program, growing the community from 31 to 428 accredited speakers in just 19 months. Today, through her consultancy SpeakerStephSpeak, she partners with organisations including TikTok and global brands to develop executive presence, leadership communication, and high-impact storytelling.
In 2024, Stephanie delivered keynotes and leadership sessions in Las Vegas, Orlando, and Melbourne, and appeared on the NAB Digital Next podcast exploring emotional intelligence in an AI-driven world. Her work is grounded in a clear belief: as technology accelerates, human skills will define the future of leadership.
What makes Stephanie’s voice especially compelling is her personal story. After being diagnosed with stage 1 breast cancer, she navigated a year of aggressive treatment while continuing to lead, build her business, and support her clients. Now breast cancer free, she speaks openly about fear, uncertainty, and identity, and the courage it takes to keep showing up. She champions the idea that vulnerability is not weakness, but a superpower - one that unlocks trust, connection, and authentic leadership.
Stephanie’s keynote sessions blend emotional intelligence, communication strategy, and real-world experience. She works with C-suite executives, high-potential leaders, and emerging talent, helping them overcome self-doubt, own their voice, and create meaningful impact. Her style is modern, practical, and deeply human, combining humour, insight, and actionable tools audiences can use immediately.
Her philosophy is simple:
“I’m not here for mediocrity. I’m here to create legacy.”
This International Women’s Day, book Stephanie to inspire your audience to lead with confidence, communicate with intention, and celebrate vulnerability as their greatest strength.
