About
You’ve probably seen it: smart people and good ideas, yet progress still stalls. Meetings go in circles, strategies make sense on paper, but they don’t take hold in practice. The problem isn’t a lack of skill. It’s a lack of strategy in how people influence, persuade, and communicate.
That’s where I come in. I’m Rita Santelli, founder of Stratevoce, a consultancy that helps leaders, teams, and organizations clear roadblocks, gain alignment, and replace stress and stagnation with momentum and measurable results.
With more than 25 years guiding brand and communication strategy for organizations like Walt Disney World, National Geographic, and Choice Hotels, I’ve seen firsthand that authentic influence is the hidden accelerator of every successful business. For the past decade, I’ve helped professionals turn that insight into action, coaching them to earn trust and credibility as a leadership strategy that drives alignment and results, including as an award-winning adjunct faculty member at Georgetown University.
Today’s hybrid, AI-enabled workplace has made authentic influence more complex, but also more essential. Whether through one-on-one coaching, team workshops, or organizational consulting, I help leaders and their teams master the strategic language of connection so they can lead with clarity, influence with confidence, and deliver results that matter, all while using AI to amplify, not replace, their authentic voice.

Voices
"Rita was a great facilitator. The way the content tied together, the way the workshop progressed, and the amount of thoughtful feedback showed a great amount of care and consideration went into the planning, and it was much appreciated."
Zack W.
"Rita received the highest rating of all of our external speakers. The hands-on workshop was clearly appreciated by all – including me! I have used the learnings to make inroads on a few things already – very satisfying."
Heidi D.
"Rita partnered with me to transform our culture from “we’ve always done it that way” to one that questions the status quo and actively tests new ideas. We went from random, emotionally driven guess-work to a big-picture long-view strategy that is informed by data and best practices."
