Stacey Kauffman spent 20+ years as a senior executive inside one of the most persistently disrupted industries in existence. As Regional VP at Audacy — a billion-dollar media company operating in 24/7, always-on environments — she earned four promotions in eight years, led complex multi-market operations, drove revenue growth across hundreds of businesses, and navigated constant disruption not as a case study, but as a daily operating reality.

She didn’t study disruption. She survived it, led through it, and eventually redesigned for it. That distinction is what makes her different on a stage.

Today, Stacey is a keynote speaker and executive advisor helping high-performing organizations stop reacting to change — and start building for it. Through her signature framework and The SK Collective, she works with senior leaders and executive teams who are tired of just holding on, and ready to design organizations that actually thrive in a world that won’t slow down.

Known for her direct, no-BS delivery and deep operational credibility, Stacey balances hard skills with humanity, accountability with compassion, and strategy with execution. Her keynotes are recognized for being grounded in real-world experience, immediately actionable, and — refreshingly — free of corporate theater.

She has been recognized by Sacramento Magazine as one of 100 Notable Business Leaders, named to the Sacramento Business Journal’s 40 Under 40, and featured by MSN as a Top 10 Speaker to Follow.
