Rachel Bondi — (Biography)Founder and Chief Executive Officer.
Rachel Bondi founded Earning Power 2005 after researching and consulting privately on the topic of women’s equality in business since 1994. Through research and personal experience she realized that women had fallen into a feminist misconception, believing that men were not needed to help them advance. She is a technology professional and corporate anthropologist who rose through the ranks at FORTUNE 100 companies only to find herself as the sole woman at the top surrounded by male executives.
During this time, she observed that many women’s groups existed, all espousing the advancement of women in business or women’s equality in general. However, Bondi realized that men in business needed a place where they could link their growing interest in empowering women with the comfort of the “old boy’s network.” She developed Earning Power as a vehicle in which powerful men and women come together to raise awareness, learn new tools, create solutions and break the last barriers of equality in business. She uses corporate anthropology to study how men and women interact in specific corporate cultures to evaluate, plan and implement custom workplace solutions.
Bondi left her position as Director of Business Development for Microsoft’s MSN Operations to co-found Citipacific Mortgage in Irvine, Calif., after a personal leap of faith into entrepreneurialism. She launched Earning Power while pregnant with twins, and grows the organization while raising her children. She believes strongly in the contributions of working parents everywhere.
Bondi became an entrepreneur after a successful 15-year-span at international corporations, where she delivered proven results by advising senior management and solving business challenges. Bondi’s corporate experience spans a variety of industries, including education, finance, telecommunications, manufacturing, entertainment and software. She held senior positions in sales, marketing, operations, IT, business development, human resources management, managing global relationships with companies such as AT&T, DHL, Fujitsu, Hewlett-Packard, Pfizer, Sun Microsystems, Toyota, Time Warner and others.
Given her depth and breadth of business acumen, many emerging organizations have sought Bondi to provide strategic start-up advice, including GNAC/Certainty Solutions, Mindsource, Netigy/ ENS and Rolling Meadows.
Bondi also has been interviewed by diverse media outlets, including TIME Magazine, Tokyo Times, The Wall Street Journal and KLSX in Los Angeles, and numerous other radio programs.
Industry and science have bestowed numerous awards and honors upon Bondi. She earned a nomination as one of the Top 20 Women of the Web from the San Francisco Women on the Web! organization at Microsoft in 2002, and YWCA nominated her as part of its Academy of Women Achievers in 1999 for her work in manufacturing IT systems at Sanmina-SCI, a FORTUNE Fast 50 company.
Bondi holds a micro MBA from Stanford University in Entrepreneurial Business Management, earned a full teaching scholarship and fellowship in linguistics from Radford University, and graduated with honors from Eckerd College with a double major in anthropology and international studies.
Bondi enjoys educational vacations and has gained certifications in interior design, bodywork, computer programming, IT service management and sailing. She is a member of the Screen Actors Guild.
