Speaker

What if the way you communicate your leadership is the very thing holding your career back?

Tanya Spencer works with women leaders to change that—by making their value visible. In male-dominated environments, too many capable, qualified women are still overlooked for promotions and opportunities.

Her work is shaped by experience at the highest stakes—from conflict zones to corporate leadership—alongside authoring two books and training over 6,000 professionals.

She is the founder of F🤬ck Being Stuck Coaching and creator of programs like Dare to Influence, where she turns complex power dynamics into clear, practical ways to communicate your value.

Through her work, Tanya helps you build influence, increase visibility, and own your voice—without overthinking, overexplaining, or shrinking yourself.

It’s what she calls Bad-Asshery.
