Michelle Diamond Biography
Michelle Diamond is a growth strategy expert, entrepreneur, and keynote speaker who serves as the founder and CEO of Elevate Diamond Strategy. Elevate Diamond Strategy provides growth strategy and execution, new market entry, competitive intelligence, and M&A advisory, training, and interim executive services. A Forbes NEXT 1000 honoree and business keynote speaker, Diamond is recognized for her expertise in how mindset influences every stage of growth strategy development and execution across organizations of various sizes and industries.
Diamond has more than 25 years of experience in strategy, general management, marketing, finance, go-to-market, audit, M&A, and operations. She has addressed board and C-suite issues for 65 domestic and global companies, including startups, early- and growth-stage firms, small- to mid-cap businesses, private equity- and venture capital-backed companies, and Fortune 50 corporations. Her industry experience spans more than 31 sectors, with clients such as CIGNA, Colgate-Palmolive, Elsevier, MetLife, Daimler, DEKRA, NRG, Constellation Energy, and Club Med. Elevate Diamond Strategy has advised on investor, board, SME, and CEO/C-suite matters, assisting public and private companies in scaling, identifying and capitalizing on growth opportunities, and maintaining or defending competitive advantage in a range of business scenarios.
Before founding Elevate Diamond Strategy, Diamond held leadership roles at several major organizations. She was director of custom executive programs at Wharton Executive Education, designing leadership programs for executives and high-potential employees globally. At CIGNA, she created and led the competitive intelligence function for the Group Insurance Division and managed the Printing & Distribution business. Diamond also served as manager of strategy at Accenture and worked in mergers and acquisitions and assurance and business advisory services at Ernst & Young. Her financial experience includes roles at Colgate-Palmolive and Citibank. Diamond holds an MBA from Duke University, a BS from Morgan State University, attended Wharton Executive Education, and is a non-practicing certified public accountant.
In both advisory and operational executive roles, Diamond identified that organizational mindsets play a significant role in achieving business success. This insight is central to her thought leadership and her book, "10-Step Guide to Creating Your Own Growth Strategy For Your Company: The Secret to Unlocking the Mystery of Achieving and Sustaining Profitable Growth." Diamond engages audiences through storytelling and practical insights drawn from her business and personal experiences, helping organizations address growth challenges and achieve strategic goals.
Diamond contributes to Entrepreneur Magazine and has been featured in Authority Magazine, Thrive Global, Inc., Los Angeles Business Journal, and other publications. She was also a contestant on the game show "People Puzzler."

Michelle Diamond Speaking Topics
A significant component of today's growth strategies from organizations both large and small include Artificial Intelligence (AI), Data, and Digital Transformation. While the focus on these areas are important, many senior leaders and those who are responsible to execute often forget that having the right strategic mindset and inputs can be the difference between acceleration in short and long term value creation and wasted time.
In this keynote program, Michelle Diamond, CEO, Elevate Diamond Strategy, will motivate, engage, and challenge audiences to ‘think and act differently’, while also providing practical and actionable profitable insights that can be implemented right away.
Knowing how to brand yourself and have the presence you need as an Executive or to obtain your desired Corporate Board seat is essential to achieve both career and business success. In this program, attendees will learn how to create and execute the right strategy to effectively brand themselves and gain the respect and buy-in they need to get and stay at the highest levels.
Mindset. The foundational key to success in both business and life. Many have heard the terms fixed vs. growth mindset, and how that can impact organizations. However, there are multiple types and layers of mindsets that many leaders and executives have that can make the difference between success and failure, when it comes to both developing and executing the right growth strategies for your organizations.
Using her dynamic and unique perspective through the use of memorable storytelling and humor, while also drawing on examples from past clients and companies in her book, 10-Step Guide to Creating Your Own Growth Strategy For Your Company: The Secret To Unlocking The Mystery Of Achieving And Sustaining Profitable Growth, Michelle will motivate, engage, and challenge audiences to ‘think and act differently’, while also providing practical and actionable insights that can be implemented right away.
Roadblocks can be both internal and external. Many well thought out growth strategies and plans go nowhere, due to these roadblocks (which can be both seen and unseen). Growth strategy development, planning, and execution has oftentimes been taught and created from a primarily analytical point of view.
During this keynote, Michelle will share real world and real life examples from some of her past clients and companies mentioned in her book, 10-Step Guide to Creating Your Own Growth Strategy For Your Company: The Secret To Unlocking The Mystery Of Achieving And Sustaining Profitable Growth, and have audiences blown away and mesmerized by how some of the biggest roadblocks were eliminated using the simplest and smallest shifts in both mindset and action that resulted in achieving growth goals, solving growth problems, and turning around numerous organizations – and how they can do the same.
“Fire him.” “Move her.” “We have to get the right people in the right seats.” While sometimes doing these things will give you the results you want and need to move your organization forward, it’s not always the case.
Using unique and relatable examples, this keynote program will engage, enable, and empower audiences to know what questions to ask and learn the difference between whether or not the REAL growth problem can be solved or growth opportunities can be achieved by changing the people, or if the underlying process (or root cause) is what truly needs to be fixed.
