The Real Secrets Behind Executive Coaching with Santiago Jaramillo
Santiago Jaramillo (or as his friends call him, Santi) has only ever had one boss in his career. That was in 2010 when he was an intern at ExactTarget. Since that experience, he has grown and sold three companies for over $50 million dollars, published a book, and been selected as a member of Inc.’s 30 Under 30 list. Entrepreneurship was instinctively built into Santi. As a young boy he got his start selling produce and water around his neighborhood in Colombia, until a near tragic experience prompted his family to immigrate to the United States. Santi has an amazing story of resilience, hard work, and incredible self-awareness—which are skills he continues to flex as an executive coach today. Santiago Jaramillo is a visionary serial entrepreneur and technology leader known for his exceptional contributions to the field of employee engagement and mobile communication. He founded, scaled, and sold Bluebridge, a mobile app development company. That set his focus on growing Emplify, a company that became a market leader in the employee engagement space and was ultimately acquired by 15Five in 2021 for $50 million dollars. Santi is now working as an executive coach where he is helping founders and leaders grow their business and navigate key transitions in life and work. Throughout his career, Santi has been honored with numerous accolades, including recognition in Forbes' 30 Under 30 list and Indianapolis Business Journal's Forty Under 40. His entrepreneurial journey and impact on employee engagement have been featured in prominent media outlets like Inc., Fast Company, and Forbes.
