ANGELINA'S Manifesto: Strategy, Scale, and Social Capital

Angelina Darrisaw is an award-winning CEO and strategist whose decade leading her firm has served as an unparalleled laboratory for generating and validating transformational leadership frameworks—the very systems she deploys for the world’s most successful organizations. She approaches every challenge, from corporate strategy to AI transformations, with the core values of curiosity and coachability, ensuring continuous growth and outsized results.

Proven Success

Her proven success is rooted in her role as the founder and CEO of C-Suite Coach, a firm that specializes in accelerating human capital for global enterprise clients. With deep expertise in executive coaching, advanced leadership development frameworks, and artificial intelligence (AI) strategy, C-Suite Coach has driven over $18 Million in sales and funneled $13 Million into job and contract opportunities for over 140 people across more than 12 U.S. states and through a globally operational team.

The firm's tangible business wins include:

Human Capital Acceleration:

Successfully training over 350,000 small businesses and providing high-intensity development to tens of thousands of employees every year at companies like Sephora, Google, and Warner Music Group.

Executive Coaching & Leadership:

Coaching senior C-Suite leaders to navigate strategic transitions and accelerate growth, built on thousands of hours of intense facilitation and program execution.

Talent Strategy & Retention:

Designing and deploying high-impact onboarding programs that have demonstrably transformed the retention and progression trajectory for new hires.

Angelina's trajectory is a testament to the power of pure strategy: She converted zero generational wealth into this multi-million-dollar enterprise through the success of her business. Angelina has perfected the framework for generating her own financial, intellectual, and social capital. She consults with high-impact leaders and institutions, teaching them how to employ this framework to convert market uncertainty into outsized ROI and strategic career mobility.

Outside of C-Suite Coach, Angelina offers limited services as a Lifestyle Architect. She believes in a full, multifaceted life and intentionally designed her personal success to include long-term engagement in the Arts and high fashion, having served as a patron of Alvin Ailey’s Young Patrons for over 13 years and drawing on her background in modeling and pageantry.

She leverages this same strategic blueprint to help clients transform their personal brands into invitations, ensuring they design the abundant life they want.

As a strategic Lifestyle Architect, she consults on curating access and building powerful social capital.

Beyond the corporate strategy, Angelina is dedicated to active community leadership, serving as a Vital Voices New York Council Member, the executive committee member of the MOMA Black Arts Council, and a Founding Futurist for the Studio Museum of Harlem.

She holds a BA in Political Science from Davidson College and an MS in Management from Wake Forest University, providing the intellectual rigor that underpins her strategic methodology. Angelina provides the blueprint for architecting a life defined by influence, abundance, and strategic mastery.
