Stephen Pike is an international travel risk specialist, author, speaker, and founder of TravRisk.
With more than 30 years of global travel experience across North America, South America, Europe, the Caribbean, Asia, and the Middle East, Stephen has spent his career operating at the intersection of safety, risk, and human performance. His work has included training, consulting, and advising organizations on managing risk in complex and dynamic environments.
Recognizing that modern travel has become increasingly interconnected, unpredictable, and dependent on systems that most travellers never see, Stephen founded TravRisk to help organizations and individuals better understand the realities that exist beyond the itinerary.
He is the author of *Beyond the Booking: Modern Travel Risk and the Rise of Duty of Care*, a book that explores how travel risk emerges in the gap between expectations and lived experience, and why preparedness is the key to travelling with confidence.
Stephen is a frequent commentator on travel preparedness, duty of care, and the future of travel risk management. Through his writing, speaking, and educational programs, he advocates a simple philosophy:
Preparedness creates freedom.
He lives in Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada, with his wife Paula, where they continue to explore the world together.
