Your Story from a Fresh Perspective

Yael Leibovitz Tannenbaum, Career Consultant and Storyteller

Nice to meet you! Yael Leibovitz Tannenbaum, Career Consultant and Storyteller, specializing in creating unique personal narratives.

I breathe life into resumes and create distinct "About" sections that highlight your specific strengths to grab attention and create differentiation.
With 20 years of experience in human resources and recruitment in financial and technology organizations, I have a deep understanding of the behind-the-scenes of the recruitment world and the internal processes candidates undergo, allowing me to bridge these worlds.

I learn new languages easily, a skill that helps me understand different cultures, audiences, and the people I work with, both as a lecturer and consultant, fostering strong connections.

As an expert in diversity and inclusion, I promote these topics in the business, government, and academic sectors through lectures, workshops, academic courses, and unique programs. I am deeply involved in empowering women, particularly Haredi women and other diverse populations, with a focus on uncovering unconscious biases in recruitment processes.


I lecture on personal and professional branding (storytelling, networking, LinkedIn), unconscious biases in recruitment processes, and decision-making,

at leading academic institutions and organizations.

What my Clients Say

Contact Me

"I am delighted to highly recommend two amazing speakers who came to Mekorot to lecture on the topic of "Double Glass Ceiling" as part of the "Committee for the Advancement of Women." The lecture was incredibly engaging, emotional, and inspiring. They managed to address important and complex topics in an accessible and clear manner and even succeeded in sparking meaningful discussions about the challenges and opportunities that women face in the modern era. They answered participants' questions in a professional and open manner, leaving a positive impression on all attendees. Yael and Hani arrived with deep knowledge and experience in the field and successfully combined theory with practice, making the lecture particularly enriching. I wish them continued success and fruitful endeavors."

Iris Ivri

Head of Human Resources Unit, Mekorot

"I want to thank you both for the fascinating session we held for managers in preparation for integrating Haredi (ultra-Orthodox) women, graduates of a specialized training program, into the Israel Electric Corporation.

You both bring an incredible and authentic story about the direct encounter between two worlds, Haredi and secular, which on the surface should be easy because, after all, we both speak Hebrew and live in the same small country where "everyone knows everyone."

From a situation where these two worlds still struggle to "communicate," you helped us see where our managerial responsibility lies in facilitating this encounter and where "we" and "they" can meet in the middle so that it feels pleasant and comfortable for everyone to be who "they" are and who "we" are."

Natali Shahar

Head of Diversity and Inclusion, Israel Electric Corporation

"We were pleased to host you at SCE Shamoon College of Engineering, for a meeting with the college staff, who, thanks to you, were exposed to the differences in discourse and culture between the Haredi (ultra-Orthodox) and secular societies.

You provided the staff with an important glimpse into professional and social communication, even when cultural differences alter the meaning of the spoken language- Hebrew. The staff showed interest and felt comfortable approaching you with questions, which opened up additional topics for thought and discussion.

Thank you very much for the opportunity to learn from you."

"I am delighted to write this recommendation for Yael, who has been an exceptional consultant who has helped me refine my CV and identify the key strengths I should emphasize. Her expertise and insightful guidance have been invaluable throughout the process.

When I first approached Yael, my CV was a collection of disjointed experiences and achievements that lacked a clear narrative. Yael's methodical approach was instrumental in transforming it into a cohesive and compelling document. She took the time to understand my professional background, goals, and the unique aspects of my career journey, ensuring that every relevant detail was highlighted effectively.

Yael's ability to distill complex information and present it clearly, concisely, and impactfully is truly remarkable. She helped me articulate my strengths in a way that showcases my skills and aligns perfectly with my goals.

Beyond her professional expertise, Yael's supportive demeanor made working with her an absolute pleasure. She was always prompt with feedback, open to discussions, and patient with my questions and concerns. Her encouragement and positivity significantly boosted my confidence.

I wholeheartedly recommend Yael to anyone seeking to enhance their CV and better understand their professional strengths. Her exceptional skills, experience, and unwavering dedication make each one feel valued and important, making her a standout consultant in her field.

Sincerely,"

Gilad

Project Manager in a Tech Company

"Before an important interview for a strategic managerial position at a large company, I was recommended to meet with Yael to prepare in the best way possible, and that's exactly what happened. After a two-hour session, I felt calm going into the interview because everything was organized in my mind in the best possible way".

Marketing Manager

"Your turn, Lior—what do you do? What’s your job?
For years, I've tried to describe to people what I do... and I barely succeed; I don't fit into any one box.
In meetings with new people, workshops, at work, or in business meetings... every time it’s my turn, I try again to describe what I do.
The appearance of a business suit doesn’t reflect who I am. The look of a flower child is even more misleading because how can you sum up someone in two lines when you have so many worlds within you?
I decided to do something about this feeling.
I met with an amazing woman named Yael Leibowitz Tenenbaum. One of Yael’s talents is knowing how to listen and shape your work into a story that is good to tell yourself and even more enjoyable to celebrate with others.
Thank you, Yael".
