Max Klymenko is a Ukrainian-born entrepreneur, digital educator, and creative force known for turning complex ideas into captivating, bite-sized content. Armed with four academic degrees in law, economics, business, and sociology, he’s laid a powerful foundation for his work across media, education, and social impact. His journey began with a desire to make learning more accessible—first for his younger sister, then for millions worldwide through platforms like TikTok, YouTube, and Instagram.

A standout feature of Max’s content empire is the Career Ladder series—a wildly popular video format where he guesses strangers’ professions and explores the diverse realities behind different career paths. It’s part game show, part social commentary, and wholly engaging. This series, combined with his broader content on branding, productivity, and business psychology, has built a social media following of over 4 million on TikTok alone. His creative agency, KLYM&CO, collaborates with major players like the UN and Google, and his podcast One Book a Week dives into personal growth through reading.

Max's success stems from more than numbers—it’s his curiosity, empathy, and storytelling. Whether he's demystifying the workplace, discussing mental health, or encouraging sustainable habits, he helps others climb their own ladders with clarity and confidence. His inclusion in Forbes 30 Under 30 Europe (2024) in Media & Marketing cements his status as one of Gen Z’s most influential communicators.
