Ilana Golan is the founder of Leap Academy, a career development platform that helps professionals navigate major career transitions.
Golan's own journey from military officer to tech executive led her to create Leap Academy, which combines traditional coaching with mindset coaching, personal branding, and networking.
The academy has guided thousands of professionals through promotion, landing new jobs, and raising capital for ventures, typically with fast, tangible results.
Golan believes many incredible professionals remain stuck because they lack the tools or confidence to make their next career leap.
The academy's proprietary method starts with deep self-reflection and finding a person's career direction before looking at personal branding and leadership development.
Leap Academy saw its participants generate over $60 million in value creation in 2022, with an average salary increase of $100,000.
Participants have gone on to work for companies like Google, Amazon, Microsoft, and Facebook.
Leap Academy's approach is characterized by its holistic, 360-degree model.
Golan's journey from the Israeli Air Force to Silicon Valley teaches the art of reinvention and how professionals can confidently make career transitions.
Golan believes that we are living in an era of unlimited possibilities, and to seize those opportunities, one must be ready to leap.
