Mory Fontanez

Mory Fontanez is the Founder and CEO of 822 Group. As an experienced strategist, counselor, and executive purpose coach, Fontanez works with companies to create powerful change in leadership mindset, business strategy and operations, culture, and customer relationships. She believes that reconnecting with our purpose begins with something vulnerable, often neglected, and definitely unconventional: our intuition. Her purpose is to guide people back to their intuition so they can reclaim their power, reach their fullest potential, and contribute to society in positive ways.

Fontanez spent 17 years managing global strategy for Fortune 500 companies, counseling brands from Hewlett-Packard to Mars to J.P. Morgan Chase. As she guided clients through crises of all kinds - splits, mergers, and public relations issues - she found herself disillusioned with the current "work culture" and, ultimately, the system that allowed toxicity to flourish in the workplace. After noticing a widespread sense of frustration and lack of passion among colleagues and clients in the corporate world, Mory founded the 822 Group as a transformation consultancy. At 822, Mory works with clients to create internal alignment and reconnect brands and their leaders to purpose. Through a tailored approach, she gets to the root of systemic issues, builds visionary leaders, inspires the workforce, and creates purpose-driven leaders and brands that connect with their employees and customers.
