About

✅ Hi, I’m Julia Snedkova, your executive career partner. If you’ve ever thought: • I’m underpaid for what I deliver. • If I don’t make a move now, I’ll fall behind. • People with less impact are getting promoted. Then yes, this is for you. 👇 _____ ✅ WHAT I BRING I’ve sat on both sides of the table. At Fortune 500, I led $500M+ portfolios, managed cross-functional teams across 30+ markets, and shaped board-level decisions. I sat in real promotion rooms where perception, politics, and power often overruled performance. Now I work with women who are: • Done being told to “just wait” • Done doing more while being seen less • Done being called “top talent” with no real action I hold an INSEAD MBA, am ICF ACC-certified, and combine global business fluency with strategic support that drives action. _____ ✅ HOW I WORK Together, we position you to: 🔹 Build durable influence 🔹 Succeed in an AI-driven landscape 🔹 Earn compensation your work warrants 🔹 Make future-facing moves with intention 🔹 Step into executive roles that match your value My approach is built on 100+ hrs of working with corporate women, backed by structured behavioral data and real-world strategy. I help tackle personal and systemic blockers: visibility gaps, political blind spots, biased managers, and the fear of falling behind. _____ ✅ WHY IT'S URGENT These blockers won’t fade; they’re accelerating. Women already face slower promotion paths. With AI adoption reshaping leadership, men are now twice as likely to use AI at work, gaining faster visibility, stronger positioning, and compounding career advantage. If companies don’t act, leadership pipelines stall. If you don’t act, relevance may outpace readiness. _____ ✅ OUTCOMES I AIM FOR While every journey is unique, my clients often pursue: 🔹 Director, VP, and C-suite roles, often off-market 🔹 Significant salary progression (20–50%+ range) 🔹 Greater influence, faster progression, more fulfillment, without burnout _____ ✅ WHEN COMPANIES BRING ME IN I help retain and elevate top female talent. When ambitious women leave, they take knowledge, but also informal influence, team stability, and culture trust. Don't let it happen. I partner with HRDs, Talent Partners, and C-leaders to: • Coach succession candidates • Elevate quiet high-performers • Strengthen internal mobility for women • Equip women to navigate politics and lead change Available for: keynotes, coaching, workshops, cohort design, and strategic advisory. _____ Subscribe to my weekly memo for women rising fast (link in bio). 📩 DM for all inquiries
