About

As a Board member, I have developed my leadership skills and skills related to management of large and complex organizations and strategic, operational and financial turnaround management. I have been focusing on recruiting, attracting and motivating young talents in order to develop their full potential through challenging work tasks and environments, and to create value for the organization where they work and for themselves. I am committed to continuous learning and further development of my skills, strategic thinking, and ability to look at the "broad picture" to be able to use it in every organization I work. As a turnaround manager I was often faced with problems that demanded quick and decisive decisions, understanding the context and implications for the organization. Through my work on projects and participation in numerous business events (conferences, business meetings, consultations, professional organizations and associations ...) I’ve developed communication and presentation skills. During my professional development, I have acquired knowledge and skills for business development and resource management. I'm focused on customer relationships, service level, and teamwork, focusing on measurable indicators, deadlines and outcomes.
