Iโ€™m Ramona Chihaia, an Advisor in product growth, innovation & strategy with 20 years of experience in technology, spanning roles from Software Engineering to Leadership. Iโ€™ve experienced traditional employment, freelancing, consulting, and fractional rolesโ€”making bold shifts and learning what it takes to stand out.๐—œ ๐˜„๐—ผ๐—ป๐—ฑ๐—ฒ๐—ฟ ๐—ถ๐—ณ ๐˜†๐—ผ๐˜‚ ๐—ฐ๐—ฎ๐—ป ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—น๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ฒ ๐˜๐—ผ ๐˜€๐—ผ๐—บ๐—ฒ ๐—ผ๐—ณ ๐—บ๐˜† ๐˜€๐˜๐—ฟ๐˜‚๐—ด๐—ด๐—น๐—ฒ๐˜€, ๐—ฎ๐˜€ ๐—œ ๐—ฎ๐—ฑ๐˜ƒ๐—ฎ๐—ป๐—ฐ๐—ฒ๐—ฑ ๐—บ๐˜† ๐—ฐ๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—ฒ๐—ฟ ๐—ถ๐—ป ๐˜๐—ฒ๐—ฐ๐—ต....I started as a software engineer, working hard to develop my technical skills and expertise.

One day, I decided to change directionโ€”and suddenly, I was managing people.

A completely different game, requiring a whole new skill set!I wish I had a mentor to guide meโ€”someone to help me lead more effectively and navigate tricky situations. But I didnโ€™t, and I found myself overthinking at night, feeling drained, and questioning myself.It was tough. Some lessons, I had to learn the hard way.


Today, alongside my work in Digital Product Strategy and Consulting, I am the coach and mentor that I needed back then. I help tech professionals grow as leaders, clarify their career path, and find or transition into their next role.

Iโ€™m so pleased to join Bridging Gaps as a mentor, so I invite you to book a 1:1 mentor session. You can also take a look at my upcoming programme, PowerUp | Recharge, a community of determined professionals, executives, and mentors who inspire each other and share their experiences.

Whether youโ€™re shifting industries, pivoting roles, or levelling up, I can help you make it happen. ๐Ÿš€
