Why Apasionada? It captures my desire to live my passion staying closely connected to the core values such as creativity, ethics, open-mindedness and engagement.

Who am I? I’m a Coach, Entrepreneur, Facilitator and Consultant passionate about personal development and organisational growth. 

How do I do it? By combining 15 years of corporate experience (both managerial and as a specialist in companies such as Google / Alphabet, Randstad or Signium International) with 2 years of supporting various partners with instructional design, coaching, consulting and facilitation activities (collaboration across IT, banking, production, sport industries or education).

I graduated in Psychology at the Wroclaw University (MA), with a scholarship of Herbert Quandt Foundation at the Dresden University of Technology and specialisation in Organisational Psychology. I’m a postgraduate in Intercultural Communication in Business at Higher School of Banking in Wroclaw and Business Training School at the Warsaw Leon Kozminski Academy.

I’m certified as a Coach (CliftonStrengths at Gallup Institute and ACC at ICF), as Agile PM Foundation & Practitioner and in Insights Discovery. 

The 17 years of my professional career include: team management in a multinational corporation in the IT sector, coaching and team effectiveness consultations, specialisation in selecting and hiring candidates, program management of strategic client support in the E-Commerce department, vendor management.

Coordination of the self-managed teams model launch and it’s scaling for the EMEA region and globally in the organization was one of my key experiences: working with teams and leadership while piloting and improving the higher employee engagement approach and Manager-Coach role transition.

I worked for companies such as: Google / Alphabet (Poland and Ireland), Randstad and Signium International. 

Privately I’m passionate about various sport activities (swimming, cycling), fascinated by fantasy, creative writing and living on an island – by having lived and worked in Ireland and discovering my second home on Hawaii. 

My CliftonStrengths Top 5 talents are: Woo, Ideation, Connectedness, Empathy, Developer.
