Michael Rossi was the valedictorian of his graduating class at Ivey Business School yet graduated without a job. As his classmates went on to highly respected companies, Michael wanted to pursue his passion and find a role in sports and business. After stints with the NHL and Nestle Canada, Michael went on to have an 18-year career with adidas Canada, where he ultimately became President of adidas Canada before the age of 40.
After 15 years at adidas, Michael reflected and started to find a new passion for Coaching. He completed his Coaching Certification (Certified Professional Co-Active Coach) and in 2020, he announced he would leave his post at adidas, the following year. Michael is an executive leadership coach, the founder of Voce Leadership, Speaker, and Board Member of the Terry Fox Foundation. He enthusiastically believes "Everyone has a voice, and truly discovering yours leads to a life of fulfillment and purpose."
