Meredith Fineman Biography

Meredith Fineman is an author, keynote speaker, executive coach, and entrepreneur specializing in self-advocacy, self-expression, and professional development. She is the founder and CEO of FinePoint, a company that evolved from public relations to focus on leadership and professional growth, utilizing PR strategies to enhance company visibility, professional confidence, and business development. Fineman's clients include entrepreneurs, corporate leaders, early-career professionals, and middle management, as well as Fortune 500 companies and major technology brands.

Fineman authored the book "Brag Better: Master the Art of Fearless Self-Promotion," which presents a framework for strategic self-promotion rooted in public relations, communications, and leadership development. The book targets The Qualified Quiet—professionals who have achieved results but struggle to communicate their accomplishments. Fineman coined this term to describe her audience. The book has been recognized for its practical approach to self-promotion, a topic relevant to professionals across industries, particularly women.

Her Brag Better initiatives include bootcamps, masterminds, and webinars designed to help individuals and organizations foster healthy pride, advocate for themselves, and amplify diverse voices in the workplace. Fineman leads Brag Better Bootcamps for individuals and custom programs for brands and corporations, focusing on cultivating environments that support employee recognition and self-advocacy.

As a communications strategist and keynote speaker, Fineman has addressed global teams, senior leaders, and high-performing professionals at organizations such as Intel, Capital One, Bloomberg, Meta, Microsoft, and Google. She has also spoken at Levi's, the 3% Conference, and Stanford. Fineman has appeared on NBC and MSNBC to discuss women and self-promotion and has been featured in AdWeek, Elle, Forbes, Refinery29, and New York magazine.

With two decades of experience as a freelance writer, Fineman has contributed to Harvard Business Review, Fast Company, Forbes, Inc., Elle, Shondaland, and Cosmopolitan, covering topics including entrepreneurship, business, women's issues, and fashion. She collaborated on the book "Microtrends Squared." As a publishing expert, Fineman has written book proposals, advised clients on the publishing process, and managed public relations campaigns for book launches, with a focus on non-fiction and non-traditional voices in major publishing houses. An authority on sustainable fashion, particularly secondhand, resale, and vintage, Fineman launched the podcast "It Never Gets Old," which has surpassed one million downloads.

Meredith Fineman Speaking Topics

  • BRAG BETTER: WHAT THE QUALIFIED QUIET NEEDS TO KNOW

    Fineman has spent a decade creating a framework for strategic self-promotion. She trains and champions Qualified Quiet — those who have done the work but don’t know how to promote it. It’s a misnomer that your work will speak for itself, and through her tried and true strategies (including the best-selling book with Penguin Randomhouse in June 2020), Fineman will concisely explain why we don’t brag and why we are missing out if we don’t. Your audience will walk away with tangible strategies for effective bragging today, tomorrow, this month, and this year.

  • WOMEN AND BRAGGING: THE TIGHTROPE OF VISIBILITY

    In this talk, Fineman goes into one of her core specialties — underrepresented voices, particularly women, and discusses the history of self-promotion and gender. She delves into strategies for comfort, empowerment, and confidence around sharing key wins using Brag Better tactics. These concrete strategies result in more money, recognition, promotions, and a culture of pride among women. Fineman is a winner among audiences of women (and allies) as she addresses and combats the scrutiny of being a woman who talks confidently about her work.
