Cindy Montgenie is passionate about helping leaders thrive and businesses grow in our diverse and ever-changing world. Cindy is a seasoned high-performance strategist, an in-demand speaker, and the founder of Edgy Strategies, a strategy and leadership development firm.
She leverages the latest research and her experience as a 20-year Fortune 50 executive to boost leaders’ effectiveness and spark transformations. From the trenches of the fast-paced and male-dominated tech industry, she led multicultural teams through countless changes and scaled a business unit from $80M to $900M in revenue. She had P&L responsibilities.
She equips leaders with the mindsets, toolkits, and behaviors they need to build a strong and diverse leadership bench, drive business success, and fast-track their transformation journey without burnout.
She has worked with clients from Fortune 100 giants, SMBs, to government organizations and equipped thousands of leaders worldwide.
What sets Cindy apart is not her distinctive French accent or 150-watt smile but her unwavering dedication to delivering tangible results.
