Dr. Stacey Radin's passion and career has been dedicated to developing powerful women leaders and the psychology of organisational effectiveness. She previously held the Director of Leadership position for Women's Leadership Exchange, a national multi media company specialising in leadership for women. She also consults to many companies regarding diversity, strengthening women's initiatives, launching affinity networks, and developing mentoring programs for corporate executives.

She has written articles for NAFE (the National Association for Women Executives) newsletter and WLE newsletter, and has been a speaker for their regional conference. She is the leadership expert for Guardian Leadership and LadyAdvisor.com and has sat on conference panels. Her current research in power and influence of women in our society has led to a book on this topic.

Stacey has more than 10 years experience coaching senior executives in Fortune 500 organisations. She has worked with leaders in finance, law, media, entertainment, and public sectors. Examples include working with groups at Pfizer, Bear Stearns, Cushman Wakefield, Women's Leadership Exchange, The Support Centre for Not for Profit Management, and Total Leadership (the Wharton Business School Programme). She designed programmes for women on topics such as leadership, partnering for performance, providing critical feedback, communication, negotiation, assessment of style, networking, and building social capital, power, and influence.

Stacey is strongly committed to developing powerful female leaders. She has developed a unique integrative leadership model: "The Leader's Forum" that utilises mentoring as a leadership practicum and capitalizes on the collective learning experience to build a template for effective development. Her philosophy is to create sustainable results by custom designing programmes to fit the needs of each organisation and individual. Her model includes consultation with the sponsor, assessment of the organisation, design of the programme, implementation, and analysis of results.

Stacey is a leading voice for women having spent her entire career committed to shaping girls and women's lives to help them believe that they can have an impact. Her style is highly engaging. It is relational and relevant. She does not "lecture" for long, she places a question, a statement, and engages the audience. Participants have said "this is not what I expected - the hours flew by," "this was so interesting,” "this was not like any other presentation or group I have experienced," "you made this really fun," "you can tell you love what you do."

She is a New York State licensed clinical psychologist, received executive coaching training from New York University, and is certified by the International Coaching Federation.
