Leadership is not power.
Great leaders are creative and responsible.
The future of leadership is adaptability.

YANA ON OVERCOMING RAPID CAREER GROWTH AND IMPOSTER SYNDROME
One of Yana's biggest challenges was transitioning from an expert role to a C-level position at AliExpress. Initially, she faced imposter syndrome and self-doubt, questioning her ability to excel in her new role. Seeking support from a business psychologist, Yana developed her meta-skills and enhanced her emotional intelligence and communication skills. This support helped her navigate complex interpersonal dynamics and organizational challenges, building strong relationships and fostering collaboration across the organization.
