Anne Tammel, Fortune 100 leadership and strategy advisor and founder of the C-Suite Collective, has been named a 2026 Nominee for the Orange County Business Journal Women in Business Awards. The 32nd Annual program takes place September 17, 2026, at the Irvine Marriott, with keynote speaker Charlene Reynolds, Director of John Wayne Airport.
Tammel began her career at the Silicon Valley firm that positioned Steve Jobs, then spent 25 years transforming workplaces. She advises Fortune 100 executives at Google, PwC, Citi, and Deloitte, with $15 billion in measured impact. She is the founder of the C-Suite Collective and the SoCal Women in Business leadership ecosphere, where she grew Orange County Women in Business 475% in two and a half months. Her book Global Icons and Innovators debuted as a #1 bestseller, with FORCE FIELD and REDEFINING LEADERSHIP forthcoming. Anne is redefining global leadership, starting in Orange County.

Global Positioning Strategy and Aligning Global Teams
Positioning strategy and culture often get treated as separate disciplines.
For 27 years Anne Tammel has advised Fortune 100 leaders on what produces a global positioning strategy and a peak-performing global organization — building the strategy and redefining the leadership required to align global organizations losing market share, dropping rapidly in revenue, employee retention, and customer retention. Global positioning strategy and leadership architecture, built as one system.
The work begins where most global organizations break: a company operating across continents carries a different story in each of its regions; the leaders align on the words while splitting on the meaning. Tammel builds the single position the enterprise can hold worldwide, then architects the leadership behavior that makes it true in Singapore, São Paulo, and Santa Clara at the same time. Position without leadership stays a slide. Leadership without position stays local. Together they scale sustainably.
That method traces back to where she started. Tammel began her career at the Silicon Valley firm that positioned Steve Jobs and the greatest tech leaders of its time, practicing positioning at the altitude where a company's entire market perception is decided. Having grown up in San Jose, one of the most culturally integrated cities in the world, at the inception of Silicon Valley, raised by parents from Manhattan, she formed the instinct for aligning people across difference long before it became a practice.
Today that practice runs inside Fortune 100 organizations with multiple billions in measured impact. Her Force Field Method integrates Silicon Valley strategy, USC architecture, and neuroscience-based leadership to scale peak-performing organizations, and her Redefining Global Leadership framework supplies the culture architecture underneath it.
Tammel's current research addresses where global capital is heading. By 2030 women are projected to control approximately $34 trillion in US investable assets, compounding at 8.1% a year. Capital is moving toward women faster than power at the decision table is, and the institutions that align their boards, CFO suites, and cap tables to that shift are positioned for where the assets are going.

Anne doesn't advise — she architects. She saw what we couldn't see in our positioning, restructured how we thought about our growth plan, then gave a clear strategic framework and extensive roadmap for global expansion."
