Meet your Coach, Michelle

As a seasoned performance coach with over 25 years of experience in strategy, sales, marketing, and financial services, I bring a wealth of expertise to help leaders and businesses reach their full potential. From Fortune 100 companies to small businesses and ambitious entrepreneurs, I’ve guided clients in driving revenue growth, building lasting client relationships, and developing high-performing teams.

As the Managing Partner of LeadFirst IQ, I’m committed to empowering leaders to unlock hidden strengths and achieve their next level of success. My focus is on leadership development, helping individuals and teams thrive through tailored strategies and actionable insights.

I am passionate about supporting women in leadership through my work with The Female Roundtable and Her Idea Collective. My mission is to empower women to build unshakeable confidence, grow thriving businesses, and excel in their careers—turning ambition into meaningful success.

I believe that embracing a growth mindset and lifelong learning is key to achieving new heights. That’s why I’m dedicated to carving a clear path for you, guiding you toward accelerated milestones. With advanced studies from Harvard and Stanford, I bring a fresh perspective, backed by proven systems and methods that deliver results.

As a member of the Advisory Council for the Harvard Business Review and a frequent speaker at leading banking and leadership conferences, I’m committed to helping women leaders break through barriers and lead with purpose.

Our Testimonials

“I would not be where I am today if I had not had the opportunity to learn from Michelle. She places such an emphasis on the development of each member of her team and is an excellent coach and mentor. She is smart and fearless, and she not only taught me how to be a banker, but she also taught me how to be a leader. I am so grateful for my time with her!”

- Amanda, Executive Vice President, Oklahoma
