LinkedIn Top Voice | #8 Female Creator USA | Technical Program Manager | PMP®| Keynote Speaker |Advisor | Ex Amazon, Harvard University | Helping People Pass The PMP Exam & Land Their Dream Jobs

Hi, I’m Elvi Caperonis, I help engineering professionals decide, clearly and confidently, whether Technical Program Management is the right next step, and how to transition without guessing.

 I am a Tech Career Strategist and Speaker focused on AI, leadership, and the future of work.

I didn’t plan to work in career strategy.

I just kept noticing the same thing in tech: people doing everything right and still not moving forward. Promotions stalled. Roles changed. New tools came in, and clarity went out.

So I started talking about what actually makes a difference when careers and teams are under pressure.

Before building my own work, I spent years inside complex tech environments, including roles at Harvard University and Amazon. I saw firsthand how careers stall, promotions break, and AI adoption struggles — not because people aren’t capable, but because clarity and ownership are missing.

Today, I help engineers, analysts, and technical professionals transition into PMP, PM, and leadership roles—so they can land high-impact jobs with confidence.

With experience at Amazon and a PMP background, I specialize in helping technical talent move from execution to leadership without starting over.

My insights have been featured in The Wall Street Journal, Business Insider, and LinkedIn News, and I’ve partnered with career and AI platforms supporting professionals through reinvention, growth, and leadership in the AI era.

Years ago, I remember scrolling through LinkedIn and seeing people share their wins:

→ New jobs
→ Speaking gigs
→ Book deals
→ Clients pouring in

I was happy for them, but I asked myself:

“Why not me?”
“Am I falling behind?”


I wasn’t bitter, I was just tired.
Tired of doing the work and seeing no results.
Tired of clapping with empty hands.

But something shifted when I stopped treating other people’s success as a threat.
I started treating it as evidence.
Proof that it was possible.

So I clapped louder.
Not out of obligation, but out of hope.

Because if it’s happening for them,
It means it can happen for me.
And if I can celebrate others in their moment,
I’ll be more than ready when mine arrives.

Today, I don’t scroll with envy.
I scroll with belief.
I know my turn is coming, and when it does,
I hope you’ll hear the thunder of the people I clapped for…
clapping right back for me. 🙌🏽

I am clapping for all of you from my heart 💕 

→ Who’s someone you’re celebrating today?

Elvi Caperonis, PMP®✨

I know someone needs to hear this today.

Waiting is exhausting.
Not knowing is harder than rejection.
And refreshing your inbox can mess with your confidence if you let it.


Over and over.
You replay interviews.
You wonder if you said the wrong thing.
Or if your resume just wasn’t enough.

I’ve been there.

After my layoff, I sent out hundreds of applications.
Most of them went nowhere.
Some days, that silence hit harder than rejection.

Here’s what I learned.

You don’t need everyone to say yes.
You only need one.

And that yes usually comes down to how clearly you tell your story.

That’s why I partnered with Kickresume.
They let me share the resume template I actually use.
It’s free.

And it’s built on an AI platform that helps you say what you mean, without sounding like everyone else.

It’s the kind of tool I wish existed when I was job searching.

Here’s the link if it helps you:

Rejections and ghosting still hurt.
They don’t mean you failed.
They’re just information.

Adjust. Learn. Keep going.
But don’t shrink.

Your offer is coming.

PS: What role are you hoping this season leads you to?

14 years ago, I've came across a decision that changed my life.



We were broke.
No jobs. No money. Just us.

He kept getting rejected.
And he was dealing with things most people couldn’t see.

He bought me a ring anyway.
On a credit card that was already maxed out.

Not because it made sense.
Because I mattered to him.

That’s when I knew.

We were living at his parents’ house.

I didn’t have a green card.
I couldn’t work.
We couldn’t afford to get married.
And I didn’t speak English.

The future looked bright… I thought :)

I am a woman of faith.

God changes everything.

Today, our lives have changed.

We have three kids.
They’re everything.

He shows up for them every day.
That’s what matters.

We have a home.
Nothing fancy. Just home.

He’s written three books.

I’ve spent years working in tech.
Now I’m building something of my own.

I’m a US citizen now.
I speak English confidently.

Most important part?
We’re still here.
Still choosing each other.
Still growing.

Happy Birthday, Ayis Caperonis ❤️

Don’t tell God how big your problems are.
Tell your problems how big your God is.

Marrying the right person changed my life.

Do you gree?

I will never forget the leader who gave me a chance. 

→ He believed in me
→ He trusted me to do my job
→ He changed my life

Not because I had the “perfect” resume.

But because he saw potential in me.

That one yes changed my life.

And it taught me this:
→ The best leaders don’t just hire qualifications.
→ They hire potential.
→ They give people a chance to rise.

If you’re in a position to hire, remember this:
You might be someone’s first big break.

The person who helped them rewrite their story.
Always be that kind of leader.

PS: Do you remember the leader who opened the first door for you?

99% of jobs can be taught (if you give people a chance)

Your education doesn't define you.

Hiring managers often require:

↳ Degrees
↳ Fancy credentials
↳ Years of experience

...for jobs that don't need them.

They're missing out on many high performers.

Here's the truth:

A piece of paper doesn’t show what you can do.

Most skills are best learned on the job.
(not in a classroom)

These 5 Things Matter More Than a Degree:

1/ Show Up When Others Don't
↳ Be the one who's always there, no matter what
↳ Even on your worst days, being present puts you ahead

2/ Do the Hard Stuff First
↳ Tackle your toughest task right away
↳ Your brain is freshest in the morning, use it wisely

3/ Learn Something New Every Day
↳ Read, watch, and talk to people smarter than you
↳ Small bits of knowledge become big wisdom over time

4/ Help Others Shine
↳ Always make your teammates look good
↳ When you lift others, you rise further

5/ Own Your Mistakes and Solve Problems
↳ Take responsibility when things go wrong, then fix them
↳ Leaders love problem-solvers, not excuses

Give folks a chance!
You might be surprised by what they can do.

And if you get one of those chances...
Make them wonder why they ever doubted you.

Remember, your credentials don't define your potential.
Your actions do.

If you can't do the little things right

You'll never do the big things right.

The most powerful Navy SEAL leadership lesson:

Admiral McRaven trained 60,000 special operators.

His career secret?
Start by making your bed.

Why? Because high performance starts with daily habits.

After 15+ years as a doctor, this truth still stands.

And I've built my businesses around this very concept.

Changing the world isn't about grand gestures.
It's about these 8 proven success principles:

1. Your daily habits
2. Your perseverance
3. Your attention to detail
4. Your ability to inspire others
5. Your willingness to start small
6. Your commitment to excellence
7. Your resilience in the face of failure 

And most importantly:

8. Your impact on those around you.

Real leadership isn't about being perfect.
It's about being consistent in the small moments.

Need simple steps to start?
Here are 5 proven strategies:

1/ Make Your Bed:
Start your day with one small victory.
It reminds you that you can achieve anything.
One win leads to another.

2/ Embrace Each Challenge:
Every successful journey has obstacles.
But you're stronger than you know:

↳ Face one fear at a time
↳ Support someone along the way
↳ Transform each obstacle into growth

3/ Master the Details:
Excellence grows in small moments.
Your progress matters, however tiny.

4/ Build Resilience:
It's okay to stumble. We all do.
What matters is rising again.

↳ Learn from setbacks.
↳ Adapt your approach.
↳ Keep moving forward

5/ Inspire Others:
Share your strength. Offer hope.
Lift others as you climb.

Remember:
Personal transformation is a daily practice.

It's been proven to me many times over
in medicine and business.

Don't wait for the perfect moment.
Start where you are.
Use what you have.
Do what you can.

Your success begins with each tiny action you take.

The difference between a boss and a leader? 

The words they choose.

After 15+ years leading teams across industries,
I noticed one crucial thing.

Your words WILL make or break your team's culture.

Powerful leaders use these phrases to build trust in their team:

🗣️ Tell me more about that
↳ Show genuine interest and curiosity

🗣️ What can I do to help?
↳ Show you're there to support the team

🗣️ I believe in you
↳ Inspire their confidence and motivate

🗣️ Let's figure this out together
↳ Encourage their solutions and teamwork 

🗣️ I hear what you're saying
↳ Show you are actively listening

🗣️ We need your voice
↳ Encourage their diverse perspectives and ideas

🗣️ What do you think we should do?
↳ Empower team members to contribute

🗣️ I appreciate this
↳ Acknowledge their hard work

🗣️ Your effort made this happen
↳ Recognize your team and give credit

🗣️ I trust your judgment
↳ Empower others to make decisions

🗣️ That was my mistake
↳ Take responsibility and avoid blaming your team

🗣️ What did we learn here?
↳ Focus on their growth without blame

🗣️ Show me how you would do it
↳ Show you respect them enough to listen

🗣️ What are your career goals?
↳ Show you care about their professional growth

🗣️ I am here for you
↳ Show you support and care about their wellbeing

Remember, the best leaders don't just inspire with their voice. 
They lead with their actions.

9 Things You Should NEVER Say in a Job Interview:
(and exactly what to say instead)

I've interviewed many people over the years.

Top performers craft responses that show:

↳ Career potential
↳ Strategic thinking
↳ Emotional intelligence

What you DON'T say matters more than what you say. 🚨

Here's what you should never say in an interview:
(and what to say instead)

❌ My main focus is work-life balance
↳ This sounds like you're looking for a 9-5.
↳ And not willing to go above and beyond.

✅ What are the key performance metrics to focus on?
__

❌ My last manager was really unfair.
↳ This says: I'm difficult to work with.
↳ And I'm not accountable.

✅ I'm looking for an environment that prioritizes respect, growth, and collaborative communication
__

❌ So, what does your company do?”
↳ This shows you haven't researched the company.
↳ And you're not interested in understanding it.

✅ How has your company's strategy evolved over recent years?
__

❌ I'm not sure
↳ This shows you can't think for yourself
↳ And might be avoiding responsibility

✅ Let me check on that and confirm with you.
__

❌ How fast can I get promoted?
↳ This says: I'm more interested in my growth.
↳ And I haven't considered the company timeline.

✅ What does career development look like in this company?
__

❌ I need at least [X] salary.
↳ This says: I'm focused on money.
↳ And I'm not interested in aligning our needs.

✅ I'm looking for fair compensation aligned with my experience. Let's discuss the compensation range once
we determine the mutual fit.
__

❌ I’m just looking to leave my current company.
↳ Shows you don't have a good reason to join.
↳ And you're settling for this as a second choice.

✅ I'm passionate about this opportunity because...
__

❌ I'm open to any role you have.
↳ Says: I'm desperate for a job.
↳ And I don't value my skillset

✅ I know that based on my expertise in [X], 
I can make the most strategic impact in this role.
__

❌ I don't have any questions.
↳ Suggests you're only interested in the paycheck.
↳ And you haven't done your homework.

✅ What’s the team culture and collaborative style?

____

P.S.
Every answer impacts their perception of your value.
Prepare intentionally. Deliver confidently.
That's how you get the offer.
