Alan Stein is the Founder & CEO of Kadima Careers, where he is on a mission to accelerate 1 million careers by 2040.
A graduate of Columbia Business School, Alan spent nearly 30 years as a successful leader at Google, Meta, Salesforce, Tableau, and American Express. He went from Manager, to Director, to Vice-President, to Global Department Head in about 10 years. In 2016, Alan received Google’s Manager Of The Year award. When he left his last corporate job at Salesforce, he was making well over half a million dollars a year.
Today, Alan helps underrepresented, underestimated, and underpaid talent land great jobs at companies including Google, Apple, Microsoft, Spotify, Salesforce, Meta, Johnson & Johnson, Unilever, and more.
He’s spoken at MIT, Columbia Business School, Blacks In Tech, Sistas in Sales, and AnitaB.org. And he works with people 1:1 every single day to accelerate their careers. His private clients, on average, increase their annual compensation by $124,887 in an average of 3.56 months of coaching (data through June 2023).
What Alan found throughout his career is that there is a lot of bias and inefficiency to the way that companies hire people. Perfectly qualified candidates are ghosted, or rejected from roles for no good reason. For all the talk of diversity, the corporate playing field is nothing close to level.
This inspired Alan to create a systematic process — The GROWTH Framework –– to help people break through these obstacles, get hired by the best companies, and build generational wealth.
When he isn’t scaling Kadima to accelerate 1 million careers, he lives in Brooklyn with his three kids, two cockapoos, two messy doves, and one phenomenally supportive wife. He also loves traveling (43 countries and counting), live music, and devouring podcasts & audiobooks.
