C-Suite Coach

What C-Suite Coach does

C-Suite Coach is a Brooklyn, New York-based executive coaching and leadership development consultancy founded in 2015 by Angelina Darrisaw, a Google alum and NYU-certified executive coach. The firm serves two primary customer segments: Fortune 500 enterprises seeking organization-wide leadership transformation, and individual executives pursuing career acceleration. A third, smaller segment targets small business owners through a dedicated small business coaching bench. Core delivery is built around three trademarked proprietary frameworks — the Success Velocity Model™, the Career Curator Framework™, and the Cross-Generational Intelligence Engine™ — supplemented by an AI Readiness & Emotional Intelligence program that frames AI adoption as a leadership rather than technology problem.

The product surface spans Enterprise Solutions (executive team coaching, organizational transformation), Career Acceleration (1:1 executive coaching), the C-Suite Academy (educational platform with workshops and intelligence reports), pre-packaged Coaching Packages, and a coaching engagement web app for session scheduling and virtual delivery. The firm reports 30+ globally certified executive coaches, 20 small business coaches, programs scaled to 360,000+ participants across 5 continents, and named enterprise clients including Google, MLB, Sephora, LVMH, Warner Music Group, SiriusXM, Salesforce, and BKLYN. The company is NMSDC, WBENC, and NGLCC certified and holds Tier 1 Supplier status with enterprise procurement organizations.

The business model is professional services: enterprise engagements are quote-based and negotiated by a field sales motion, individual coaching is sold via consultation-based booking and packaged offerings, and pricing is not publicly disclosed. Go-to-market combines enterprise field sales with event-driven demand generation (C-Suite Coach Chats, webinars, and partnerships with Black Ambition and the New York Urban League) plus content marketing through an Insights blog, newsletter, and YouTube podcast series. The company is privately held and founder-owned, with no disclosed institutional investors or funding rounds.
