Why Watch
In 2026, her team is heavily focused on streamlining how they communicate value, internally and externally, with a strong emphasis on efficiency and scalability. While AI is a popular buzzword, their focus is practical: using the right tools to reduce friction, improve workflows and free teams to focus on high-impact work. That intentional approach allows them to move faster while staying grounded in client needs.
“Stephanie is a leader who elevates both the work and the people behind it,” said Vishal Tulsian, president and COO of RELI Group. “The progress we’ve made across our brand, digital presence and messaging reflects her ability to empower teams while keeping a sharp focus on outcomes.”
RELI also helps agencies simplify processes, modernize operations and make smarter use of data and technology. They focus on listening first, understanding where inefficiencies exist, and then applying thoughtful solutions, including responsible AI, to reduce cost and improve outcomes. That balance of insight and execution helps agencies adapt while maintaining trust and accountability.
