About this session

An introductory call is a simple way to get to know a mentor before committing to ongoing mentorship. This session gives you the chance to ask questions, talk through your goals, and see whether the mentor’s background, communication style, and approach feel like the right fit for you. It is a low-pressure starting point designed to help you make a more confident decision.

You can use the call to share what you are working on, what kind of support you are looking for, and where you feel stuck right now. It is also a chance to understand how the mentor typically works with mentees, what kind of guidance they can offer, and whether there is a strong mutual fit. The goal is to leave the conversation with more clarity on your next step and whether you want to continue working together.

Your mentor

Senior director in enterprise tech, 15+ years, with real experience hiring and structuring offers at the senior level. This intro call is a no-pressure way to pressure-test where you are, where you want to go, and whether I can help.

From the first session, he took time to understand where I was starting from instead of running a generic playbook. What stood out was how practical it was, with real frameworks he’s used in the past for prospecting, objection handling, and discovery calls, plus a full rework of my resume and LinkedIn to actually speak the hiring manager’s language. He’s easy to talk to and doesn’t sugarcoat what needs to change, which pushed me to improve faster. After working together for some time, I landed a role I’m genuinely excited about. If you want someone who knows the tech sales, presales, and strategy landscape inside and out and actually cares about your growth, Ivan’s it!”
