Grace, Grit & Global Growth: Anna Jankowska on Leading with Vulnerability
Episode Overview:
In this episode of The Corporate Baddie, Jen Werner sits down with Anna Jankowska, EVP of Global Partnerships at RTB House and Adlook, for a conversation that spans continents, career pivots, and the courageous act of staying true to yourself in the boardroom and beyond.
Anna’s path to executive leadership didn’t follow a straight line-from her early ambitions in law, to navigating the world of banking, and ultimately finding her place (and power) in ad tech. With every pivot, Anna leaned into what made her different, her global perspective, her curiosity, and her ability to lead with vulnerability.
Together, Jen and Anna explore:
How to build long-term partnerships rooted in mutual respect
Why learning to say no is essential for sustainable growth
The role of cultural awareness in global leadership
How personal truths drive professional transformation
Why being real and not perfect is the secret to influence
The surprising personal passions that fuel her fearless energy (hint: skydiving & racing!)
Whether you’re climbing the ladder, switching lanes, or redefining success on your own terms, this episode will remind you that authenticity, resilience, and baddie-level bravery are always in style.
