Monica McCoy is the Founder of MonicaMotivates, an organization providing coaching, speaking, and consulting services that helps women transition from being spectators with their lives to being active participants inside the arena.
Monica is also the Acting Global Director, Strategy and Innovation for The McDonald’s Division where she leads a range of visionary business initiatives. Since starting her career with The Coca-Cola Company in 2002, her innovative approach and passion for pushing the envelope have earned her a variety of strategic positions and expanded responsibilities.
Monica sits on the executive board of Women’s LINC (Lead, INspire, Connect), The Coca-Cola Women’s Business Resource Group that engages women at the company to drive business performance and reinforce its reputation as a great place for women to work.

She is also Vice President, Ambassadorship, for LINC, responsible for developing relationships with organizations and individuals to help advance women and girls.
In 2011 Monica McCoy noticed the amount of women struggling to find their passion and purpose. Sparking her to action, she founded MonicaMotivates, providing executive-level speaking, coaching and consulting services to professional corporate women and female business owners.

MonicaMotivates focuses on providing actionable solutions for business owners to pursue their passion, dream, and goals.
Monica eagerly accepts leadership roles with women’s initiatives such as the Women’s Foodservice Forum and #5×20, The Coca-Cola Company’s global movement to empower five million women entrepreneurs by 2020.
