My top strategy would be confidence and reminding myself that I am an asset wherever I am. I bring a lot to the table, and if someone or people are going to look down on me because of how I speak, then they are worth my time and voice. It does take a lot from to say things, so whoever I am speaking to better be ready to listen and not cut me off. Overtime, having this confidence helps you become more comfortable with your stutter. Your stutter is not going to go away by doing this (i think and from experience), but for me, confidence makes me less anxious, which then helps me to stutter less.
