About Michelle Putman
Award-Winning Medical Device Sales Leader | Driving $36M+ Growth | Regional Director of the Year (x3)Award-winning medical device executive with 25+ years of progressive leadership experience spanning sales, marketing, clinical education, and people development across Fortune 50 and Fortune 500 organizations. My career reflects a proven ability to develop talent, shape strategy, and deliver sales growth at scale.I am passionate about building and promoting people. Many of the leaders I’ve mentored at Johnson & Johnson and Zimmer Biomet have gone on to earn promotions and lead regions of their own. I believe great leadership is measured not only in revenue growth but in the success of the people you develop along the way.As a strategic thinker, I excel at aligning market opportunities with business objectives — designing growth plans, driving competitive conversions, and scaling portfolios from launch to market leadership. At Zimmer Biomet, I grew the Southeast region from $400K to $36M, introduced innovative sales strategies that became national models, and consistently exceeded quota with double-digit growth.At the core, I am also a seller at heart. I understand the importance of building trust with physicians, health systems, and C-suite partners, and I bring the same focus on execution and results whether closing in the OR, leading contract negotiations, or presenting to national leadership.I am now seeking to leverage my experience, network, and proven results in a Vice President role where I can continue driving organizational growth, developing future leaders, and shaping the next wave of innovation in the medical device industry.
