Nice to Meet You
I’m Dr. Stephanie A. Smith, and I work at the intersection of reputation strategy, executive visibility, and communication science to help you shape your reputation with clarity, credibility, and strategy that actually works.
With nearly two decades of experience as an award-winning PR practitioner, tenured professor, and consultant, I bring practical insight and research-backed precision to each project.
My clients are founders, executives, and changemakers navigating high-stakes moments like job interviews, keynote stages, media placements, personal rebrands and everything in between. Together, we sharpen your message, strengthen your presence, and align your public voice with your private goals.
The results bring strategic visibility, unmistakable coverage, confidence, and control.
In addition to consulting, I’ve authored peer-reviewed journal articles and books on communication in the workplace and reputation management. You can explore more of my academic work here.
Asked & Answered
Yes! I regularly work one-on-one with executives, founders, and solo practitioners, but I also consult with leadership teams, facilitate workshops, and offer tailored training sessions for small groups. If you’re looking to align your team’s voice or reputation strategy, I’m all in.
Both! I work with clients all over the country primarily via Zoom, which makes scheduling flexible and seamless. For VIP days, team workshops, or speaking engagements, I’m also available to travel. We’ll design the experience that works best for your goals.
Yes! Whether you’re hosting a leadership offsite, employee summit, or industry event, I love bringing interactive, high-energy sessions that spark meaningful growth. My speaking topics center on reputation, strategic communication, and modern leadership, and each one is tailored to your audience.
Most projects are designed to deliver results quickly; think one-day intensives, 4-week strategy sprints, or 6-week messaging packages. If you need more ongoing support, we can build that in. But I believe in moving fast and making it count.
It depends on the scope and structure of what we’re working on. A 1:1 strategy session for 90-minutes is $500 and VIP days and other intensives begin around $2,500, but I’m happy to tailor a package to your needs and budget.
