Michael Margolis Biography

Michael Margolis is the CEO and founder of Storied, a strategic messaging firm that specializes in narratives for disruption and transformation. Storied focuses on the internal story for hyper-growth, from selling a vision to change management and scaling culture. Margolis has built a reputation for solving complex challenges at a large scale. He has advised numerous organizations including Facebook, Google, Hulu, Shopify, Uber, Dolby, Visa, Roche, and NASA on their most strategic growth initiatives. He works primarily with teams in Silicon Valley and Fortune 500 companies that are responsible for building the future in product, design, marketing, engineering, and talent.

Margolis emphasizes that at every growth-inflection point, a company needs to revise its narrative to address category disruption, platform creation, or recruiting velocity. As a leader, your effectiveness is measured by your communication skills: your ability to inspire, influence, and motivate others through a compelling, unified narrative.

Deeply committed to global systems change, Margolis works with major platforms, tools, and interfaces that are redefining various aspects of life. The son of a mad scientist and a teacher/artist, he is fascinated with translating innovative ideas into cultural acceptance. Trained as a cultural anthropologist and a student of esoteric Tibetan Buddhism, Margolis explores the conscious life of stories and the impact of language on reality. His early career as a social entrepreneur was supported by the Ford and Rockefeller Foundations, focusing on tech workforce development and bridging the Digital Divide.

For nearly two decades, Margolis has been a trailblazer in using storytelling and narrative as a management tool. He has taught his methods globally, reaching tens of thousands of professionals across 15 countries and 6 continents. A best-selling author and two-time TEDx speaker, Margolis delivers numerous storytelling keynotes and trainings annually. His work has been featured in prominent publications such as Fast Company, TIME, and Inc. His latest book, "Story 10x: Turn the Impossible Into the Inevitable," has received high ratings and is available in various formats including Kindle and Audible. Known for his unique perspective, Margolis is left-handed, color-blind, and has a penchant for exotic craft chocolate. Now residing in Los Angeles, CA, Margolis continues to share his storytelling insights and strategies to empower organizations and individuals worldwide.
