Stephanie’s innovative Stand in the Gap Method coaching program is a testament to leaving the world better and supporting others in developing the awareness, skills, and resilience to “think like an owner” and excel in professional settings. Unlike traditional high-level consultants who merely prescribe solutions, Stephanie prides herself on being an “executive doer,” rolling up her sleeves and implementing strategies alongside business owners—or on their behalf—rather than merely telling them what to do.

With her multifaceted expertise and unwavering dedication to making a difference, Stephanie continues to leave an indelible mark on both the business world and the literary landscape.

The Dark and Silent Office Guidebook illuminates each person’s responsibility to stand in the gap and own the responsibility of daily inclusive communication in the workplace. Often, we hear about digital accessibility, and web development is center stage of the conversation. Published by 5FT View, the Guidebook will serve as a basis for ongoing awareness, education, training, and supporting services. This pioneering guidebook is the first of its kind, focusing on enhancing workplace communication for digital communication and documents with hearing and visually impaired colleagues. Geared towards coworkers, managers, and HR/DEI leaders, this resource is a must-have for anyone looking to foster a more inclusive and effective work environment.
