To every ambitious woman who wants to reach the C-suite faster, without sacrificing her life to get there.
I moved from Nigeria to the United States at 16 to attend college. I remember surviving on ramen noodles while earning my bachelor's degrees in Accounting and Economics. I went on to start my career in Big Four Accounting and later earned an MBA in Supply Chain Management.
7 years later, I was a Director at a Fortune 500 company, reporting to an SVP, with direct reports in 5 continents; 3 years later, I became Head of Global Supply, accountable for a $300 million business unit, reporting directly to the C-suite.
But it wasn't always smooth sailing.
Growing up in Nigeria, I was taught to put my head down, work hard, and let my results speak for themselves.
Until one year, when I was certain I'd earned a promotion, my boss told me something I'll never forget.
“You're doing great work. But no one really knows you.”
I was the best-kept secret in the organization.
That conversation changed everything.
I invested in coaching and stopped just working in my career. I started working on it.
The promotion came, followed by more opportunities. Eventually, I began coaching others alongside my executive role, and Intelle Coaching Solutions was born.
Ten years later, we've helped over 900 women leaders accelerate toward Director, VP, and C-suite roles, with clients achieving six-figure compensation increases.
We've also partnered with companies like Meta, Google, Bain, Dropbox, Weightwatchers, etc to develop their top executive talent.
Over the last 3 years, our company has awarded over $50,000 in scholarships to International students in tech who couldn't afford their education. As a former international student myself, that means a great deal to me.
I'm telling you this not to impress you, but to show you what's possible.
I believe your career doesn't have to follow the traditional corporate ladder.
Two women can have 15 years of experience. One is a Senior Manager. The other is in the C-suite.
The difference? One accumulated experience. The other deliberately expanded her influence, scope, and impact.
She didn't take the same job twice.
I believe in replacing career inertia with career intention.
I believe you can skip levels without burning out or sacrificing your life.
And I believe you shouldn't have to wait another decade to achieve what you're capable of today.
I came to this country with no corporate connections, no influential network, and an unfamiliar last name.
If I could learn to navigate the system, you can too.
Your career is too important to leave to chance.
Welcome to Your Catapult.
-Stella Odogwu
You are already successful.
Internal recognition.
And have a strong track record of delivering results and outperforming.
Because at the VP or C-suite level… Subject matter expertise is the starting point. Promotion is decided by something else:
Maximize Value
Create Executive Brand
Communicate Believably
Why are recruiters contacting me for the job I did years ago?
Can I even withstand another promotion given my current level of overwhelm and burnout?
Why does my manager keep talking in circles regarding a promotion?
Do I have the leadership skills required to lead myself and others at the executive level?
How do I make it to the C-suite before I turn 65 at this rate?
Your company is not asking: “Has she worked hard?”
They are asking: “How well can she operate and deliver at the next level of leadership?”
They are asking, Is she the lowest-risk hire? Why hire her over someone else who has done this same job for 15 years already?
This is how a high performing leader can accumulate interviews and networking chats across organizations with no offers.
Imagine this: Within the next 6 months
- You are no longer hoping for a promotion.
- You are fielding offers at the level you actually desire.
- Executives seek your perspective before decisions are finalized.
- Recruiters contact you for VP and SVP roles, not positions you outgrew years ago.
- Your compensation is in the top percentiles for your level.
- Your influence matches your ambition.
- And your success does not cost you your health, your family, or your sanity.

LOOKING FOR SOME CASE STUDIES?
LaToya was an L&D Manager at Gartner when she attended our Bootcamp. She had already had extensive experience in HR in multiple industries. Her goal was to land a skip level role to Director internally. While title was important, her main focus was ensuring she was having the right experiences and impact on the business, as well as significantly accelerate her comp. Internally, we focused on her leadership, project delivery, communication and negotiations skills.
In the middle of the program, LaToya had a significant life event. After taking some time, she renewed her commitment and drive and focused on her goals. Within the first 7 months in the program, she landed an internal promotion to Associate Director. A few months later, she decided to work on landing an external opportunity. We addressed her resume, did interview role plays, dialed in her networking strategies.
LaToya landed 2 offers simultaneously and ultimately accepted a role as Director having increased her comp by $200K!
Adebisi was a Sales Manager at Microsoft when she joined The Career Catapult. She had just transitioned to a new role and was being onboarded by her new manager. Her immediate need was to build the right relationships and establish the right brand with her transition; as well as position herself for her next level in under 12 months.
Our strategy was to execute a strong First 90 day plan that included strategic handshake between her incoming and outgoing manager to generate internal sponsorship; deliver highly visible results quickly, cultivate strong relationships up, across and down the chain; as well as implement an external brand (resume, linkedin, interview prep).
Adebisi landed a skip level promotion externally as Director of Sales at a midsize Tech company. The role had been designed specifically for her. During her tenure, she maintained strong relationships with her leadership at Microsoft.
After 1 year, she was recruited and has boomeranged back to Microsoft as a Senior Sales Director, exponentially catapulting her impact and her compensation with each step.
Cherise had just a landed a role as VP within a PR firm. She knew she wanted to start her role much more intentionally than she has in the past. She joined The Career Catapult. Our strategy for Cherise was to create a strong First 90 plan focused on intentional brand building, certain key conversations with her manager as well as cultivating strong relationships is every direction. 9 months in, Cherise won a highly coveted award based on her leadership.
She very quickly became the obvious choice for SVP and eventually had her peers report into her! She received a six figure increase in her compensation before the end of year 1!
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
The bigger question is what it could cost you to stay where you are. Another year of being overlooked, underpaid, or operating below your potential could cost you far more than $14,000. One strategic career move could increase your annual compensation by six figures, with financial benefits that compound for years.
Over the past 10 years, we've helped more than 900 women leaders pursue accelerated career advancement, with clients securing Director, VP, and C-suite roles and achieving six-figure compensation increases. You're not starting from scratch. You're investing in a proven approach, expert coaching, and the support to pursue your next move with confidence rather than spending years figuring it out alone.
Virtually every high-performing woman I ever speak with underestimates their readiness.
The real differentiator at the next level is not technical mastery.
It is signaling, positioning, and executive presence.
If you are already delivering results at your current level and have C-suite ambition, you are likely more ready than you think.
The question isn’t “Am I ready?”
It’s “Am I operating at the level that communicates readiness?”
That is what we recalibrate inside The Career Catapult™.
You can.
Many women try.
And most revert to their default operating patterns under pressure.
Why?
Because Information is not the issue.
Calibration is.
When you are negotiating scope, navigating political dynamics, building your business case, or repositioning your brand externally, blind spots inevitably surface...
...and the insidious thing about blind spots is they are invisible to the person who has them.
That is why this is not a course.
It is a 12-month executive calibration partnership.
Market uncertainty does not eliminate executive advancement.
It increases scrutiny.
In tighter markets, companies promote fewer people.
Which means positioning matters more, not less.
The leaders who rise during volatility are the ones perceived as strategic, stable, and future-focused.
This system is designed precisely for that environment.
When your scope, compensation, and influence expand, it impacts your household for years...
...for life.
Many of our clients involve their partners in the decision.
If helpful, we are happy to provide additional clarity to support that discussion.
This is not a lifestyle gamble.
It is a strategic career acceleration.
The Career Catapult™ Method is a structured process proven to accelerate your path to the C-suite.
When implemented fully, our clients consistently achieve:
Skip-level promotions...
Significant compensation increases...
Strategic scope expansion...
BUT
Outcomes require execution.
The only consistent predictor of stagnation is partial implementation.
If you are coachable, communicative, and willing to operate differently, the system works.
After 6 months, you can choose to continue your enrollment with us on a month-to-month basis for $399 per month. You can cancel anytime with 30 days notice.
Who The Career Catapult™ Is NOT For
This program is not for everyone. It is not for you if:
- You are looking for resume edits or surface-level interview tips
- You want motivation, but not accountability
- You have a track record of giving up on difficult goals
- You believe promotions are owed for hard work alone
- You are unwilling to examine your blind spots and direct feedback makes makes you defensive
- You want guarantees without execution
- You are not yet operating at a senior level (Director+ or equivalent scope)
This is for women who:
- Already perform at a high level
- Are willing to operate differently
- Want skip-level strategy, not incremental growth
- Are coachable, decisive, and ready for visibility
If that does not describe you, this is not your next step.
And that’s okay.
