An executive coach with twenty-five years inside the building

I have dedicated my career to empowering leaders to embody the principle of being the change they wish to see in the world.

Timothy Cormier, executive coach, Miami

Hi, I’m Timothy Cormier {kor·mee·ay}.

With expertise in strategic planning, leadership innovation and talent development across multiple Fortune 100 organizations, I have built transformative learning programs that equip executives to lead with confidence in a landscape that will not sit still.

As a Chief Learning Officer and the founder of Cormier Executive Optimization (C.E.O.) Coaching & Consulting, my mission is to develop leaders into transformational change agents who drive organizational excellence and long-term impact. I firmly believe one individual can spark the change an entire culture has been waiting for.

Miami is my home because it refuses to let you stay in your own head. Every culture here hands you a new way of seeing people. That’s the job, too.

Where executive coaching meets a real operating history

I did not arrive at coaching from the outside. I spent twenty-five years inside Micron, DIRECTV, Eli Lilly, Blue Cross of Idaho, TracFone and Verizon — including leading enterprise talent development through one of telecom’s largest acquisitions, and serving as Dean of TracFone University. I have carried a number, run an integration, and had the conversation nobody wanted to have.

That history is why the coaching is practical. We are not going to spend your time on theory you cannot use on Monday.

Certified Senior Executive Strategy Advisor

I’m certified in providing expert, high-level guidance to executives on developing and implementing complex, long-term business strategies — enhancing competitive positioning, driving operational effectiveness and achieving organizational goals.

AI + EQ: a blueprint for a human company

The question on every executive’s desk right now is not which tool to buy. It is how people and machines work together without the people quietly checking out. My current work — the writing, the keynote, the sprints — lives exactly there: technology in balance with humanity.

Career coaching for the person, not only the title

Be the CEO of your career. Titles change and industries churn. What travels with you is judgement, presence and the ability to bring people with you. That is what we build together.
