Meet Zahria Harvey.
Enterprise-level experience, brought to founders, startups, growing businesses, and organizations looking to scale with intention.
I didn’t start here. I started in the rooms most consultants only read about.
Before The Growth Dept. existed, I was behind the scenes at some of the most recognized brands in the country, managing multi-million dollar media budgets at The Home Depot, leading campaigns for Warner Bros. Discovery, HBO Max, Cartoon Network and Adult Swim, and building growth strategies for organizations like the NBA, WNBA, Peloton, and GirlTREK.
I’ve sat in the strategy meetings. I’ve managed the spend. I’ve watched what works at scale and what looks good in a deck but falls apart in execution.
What I noticed is that the thinking that makes enterprise brands win isn’t complicated. It’s just not accessible. Most founders can’t afford an agency retainer, don’t need a 40-person team, and get handed templated advice that was never built for where they actually are.
That’s the gap The Growth Dept. exists to close.
I built this to give founders and growing businesses the same strategic rigor I applied at the enterprise level. Something packaged into clear engagements, at a price point that makes sense, with someone who actually picks up the phone.
You don’t need a massive budget to think like a big brand. You need the right plan.
