Testimonials

The interactive workshops and peer feedback were game-changing for 50 product leaders and helped them think through the different career paths, and the necessary skills to get there. The PMs in the room shared that the talk helped them create a plan and get an accountability partner around career growth opportunities to focus on.
Jerry Young
Digital Health Leader
Elena was an invaluable mentor -- guiding me through tough career decisions and coaching me on topics like executive presence and cross-team communication. Her advice helped me take on more challenging assignments and ultimately land my next executive role.
Mickey Slevin
GM, Stepful
Elena is approachable and kind. I never felt timid to be open and honest, and she never made me feel silly for asking simple questions and always accepted my vulnerability with support. She also gave very organized feedback and takeaway ideas for me to then apply to my role.
Reshum Panchal
Sr. Product Manager
Elena engaged 80 product management students in conversations that changed their approach to product management and go to market. Instead of jumping to solutions students paused, talked to users, oriented against the problem and course corrected to building solutions that would be useful.
