  4. #46 | From Rockstar to C-Level – Reinvention, failure, and leading the interim revolution | Robert “Robby” Sadjak
What does it take to rise fast, fail hard, and come back stronger
than ever?

In this episode of Sharks in the Pool, I speak with Robert
“Robby” Sadjak, Managing Partner of Dr. Maier & Partner and
Valtus Germany, about his extraordinary journey through global
brands, personal failure, and professional reinvention.

Robby’s career spans both triumph and transformation:

Built powerhouse brands at Henkel and PepsiCo, including turning
Germany into the #2 global market for Rockstar Energy

Launched and failed his own startup — and came back with sharper
focus and stronger values

Now drives leadership impact through two of Germany’s most
respected firms in executive search and interim management

5 powerful takeaways you’ll get from this episode:

1. The real reasons his startup failed — and what ex-corporate
leaders need to unlearn to succeed

Forget the playbook. Robby explains why corporate success can be
your biggest blind spot as a founder.

2. Why interim leadership is booming — and here to stay

With over 15,000 interim executives in Germany, Robby explains
how C-level leaders are finding freedom, focus, and control in
the interim model.

3. How to build teams that follow you for life

Leadership isn’t about charisma — it’s about creating safety,
clarity, and momentum. Robby shares the method that made his
teams loyal for years.

4. How parenting and global travel shaped his leadership mindset

From Sri Lanka to Japan, Robby reflects on how shared values and
cultural curiosity created alignment at home — and in business.

5. Why AI is already reshaping executive leadership

From sourcing talent to strategic decision-making — Robby shares
how he’s actively integrating AI to stay ahead of the curve.

Whether you’re a C-level leader, founder, or in a moment of
career change — this conversation will move you, challenge you,
and sharpen your thinking.
