Even the Top Leadership Jobs Don't Need to be Lonely
Uncertain business environment. Pressure to grow the business. Conflicting priorities. A demanding board and investors. Integrating AI into the business. Unmotivated managers and staff. Burnout.... The list of business-existential issues that occupy your mind is long.
My name is Judit Petho and I am an advisor, sounding board, change maker, and confidant to senior executives on issues that impact their performance and the success of their business. I provide high-level business expertise to drive high performance, growth or transformation.
I bring twenty years of strategy and management experience. I spent that time as CEO and COO in a range of industries and delivered measurable results to neutralise strategic threats and deliver profitable paths forward. I also executed a business-saving turnaround, grew businesses via M&A, and built high performing teams. Navigating high-stakes, uncertain environments is my superpower.
What's keeping you up at night?
Leadership can be lonely if you don't have the right team around you.
If you are...
- a CEO in a demanding environment that requires fast, high-impact decision making
- navigating uncertainty, transition, rapid growth
- needing to sharpen execution excellence and improve team performance
- a developing leader seeking an experienced guide to balance professional and personal ambitions
...You'll benefit from
working with a consultant, guide, and thought-partner who has the credibility, network, and experience that matters.
I've sat where you sit. I understand the stakes, constraints and opportunities. As CEO of multiple businesses from global giants to tech startups, I have lived through the full cycle of leadership.
My leadership has produced measurable, high-impact results - from transformations and right-sizing operations, to strengthening financial footing and increasing profits. I guided organisations through comprehensive change, elevated performance, built high-performing teams and integrated acquisitions, and so much more to achieve ambitious visions.
My approach and ability to help senior executives are underpinned by two decades of C-suite experience - you can see details on LinkedIn at www.linkedin.com/in/juditpetho. I take continuous learning seriously; in addition to a rigorous academic education spanning MBA, law and economics, I regularly top up my skillset with leadership, behavioural coaching, nutrition, AI and strategy courses.
