LEAD BOLDLY

CHANGE THE WORLD

I’ve spent my career leading, advocating, and building.

I’ve never been one to settle, you shouldn't either. 

I believe the world needs bold, compassionate, capable leaders now more than ever. And I know firsthand that leading change isn’t easy. The obstacles, the resistance, the sheer weight of responsibility - it’s all part of the journey.

HELLO

I'm Julie Jakopic

Speaker. Strategist. Advocate for leaders who refuse to settle.

For decades, I’ve helped mission-driven leaders turn bold ideas into reality—whether they’re shaping policy, transforming communities, or building businesses that create real impact. I’ve stood on global stages, advised decision-makers, and built iLeadStrategies to help leaders like you navigate the complexities of making change stick.

Because leadership isn’t just about titles and positions.

It’s about vision, courage, and action.

WHAT I STAND FOR

Real Change

starts with

BOLD LEADERSHIP

If you want to change the world, you have to be willing to step up, speak up, and challenge the status quo.

Collaboration

is

POWER

No leader succeeds alone. The most impactful leaders build strong, sustainable teams and movements.

MISSION

over

Ego

Success isn’t just about climbing ladders. It’s about building something that matters without burning out or selling out.

The Power

of

POSSIBILITY

No one hands you a permission slip to do things differently. But trust me - reinvention is always an option.

Success

should feel

MEANINGFUL

You don’t have to choose between making an impact and living a life that brings you joy. You deserve both.

CREATING LASTING IMPACT

I’ve spent my career helping people lead - from boardrooms to government offices to global stages. I’ve shared the mic with President Obama, guided organizations through transformational change, and built iLeadStrategies to support leaders committed to creating lasting impact.

But at the core of my work? It’s always been about people.

Because leadership isn’t about ego or power - it’s about using your voice, your vision, and your influence to build something that truly matters.

Because when you do? Everything changes.
