Curious about how you can gain greater influence as a Polish executive working with international teams? 
Do you want to unlock the secrets of better collaboration and business communication in English?

I help Polish executives master the skills essential for success in international business.

---

Originally from New Zealand, now based in Warsaw, I have lived in five countries and worked in 10, leading senior teams for companies and clients such as Ogilvy, Accenture, and Microsoft. 

This experience has given me a unique understanding of both the Polish and the Anglo-American perspective, and the challenges of working across cultures. 

Polish and Anglo-American styles of business are quite different. Problem-solving, collaboration, and business communication are just some of the areas where cultural contrasts cause issues. 

Many Polish executives have told me they are frustrated at not getting the results they want when working with international clients or colleagues.

The good news is that we can fix this.

I will support you in learning: 
- creative leadership techniques for better business problem-solving 
- skills to communicate persuasively in English
- cultural awareness to easily navigate differences and manage multi-national teams

Coaching will benefit any Polish business leader or executive team working with Anglo-American clients or colleagues, particularly those where English is the daily language of business.

My approach is to work 1:1 or with small senior teams. Contact me today via LinkedIn DM or book an intro meeting by clicking ‘Umów Spotkanie’ / ‘Book An Appointment.’

Presenter/Expert on Not Enough Hours

The most critical leadership skills in the business world today are your ability to think strategically and influence strategically. In these constantly changing times, you need to be constantly changing plans and changing minds. But ideas don't lead to change. It's your belief in an idea that leads to change. I help leaders and organizations believe in what's worth believing in.

📖  I have worked with hundreds of companies such as Google, LinkedIn, Devbridge, Barclays, Pfizer, Roche, Merck, Citibank, Morgan Stanley, Radisson, Irish Life, Ogilvy, Car Trawler, Abbott, Publicis Sapient, Oriflame and the Flying Dog Brewery to name but a few. 

💻 My TEDx talk on Mind Control has been viewed more than 1.3 million times on YouTube.
