Diana Day, Senior Director of Business Development at Coast Professional, Inc., Named 2024 Stevie® Award Finalist

GENESEO, NEW YORK (September 20, 2024) – Coast Professional, Inc. (Coast) is pleased to announce Senior Director of Business Development Diana Day has been named a Stevie® Award finalist for the “Female Executive of the Year – Business Services – 11 to 2,500 Employees” category at the 2024 Stevie® Awards for Women in Business. Being a finalist assures her either a gold, silver, or bronze-level distinction when the Stevie® Award Winners are announced on Friday, November 8 at the Marriott Marquis Hotel gala event in New York City.

The Stevie® Awards for Women in Business honor the achievements of women executives, entrepreneurs, employees, and the companies they run worldwide. The Stevie® Awards have been hailed as the world’s premier business award. This year, more than 1,500 nominations were submitted for consideration this year from 36 nations and territories.

Ms. Day was nominated for this award by Coast because she is a trailblazer with demonstrated drive and initiative. Since her arrival in 2019, she has consistently been a champion for the company, often exceeding the expectations and goals of sales and leadership.

Ms. Day was a driving force in establishing new business endeavors for Coast with her strategic thinking and unique ability to build trust with decisionmakers. She was responsible for Coast’s first collection-based contact center for a state tax client and played a key role in Coast entering the Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) business space.  Since that time, Ms. Day has secured multiple contracts with federal, state, and local government agencies as well as private partnerships.

Ms. Day’s manager, and Coast Vice President of Business Development Matthew Isaacson, had this to say about her achievement:

“Diana is a natural leader and top performer in our organization. Her insight and independent thinking are immensely valuable. This honor is well deserved, and Coast is fortunate to have someone so dedicated to its success.”
