My journey in professional and personal development

I`m Kasia.

I have over 15 years of experience in a demanding, international environment, gained in small and medium-sized enterprises as well as in a global corporation. My professional path involved significant challenges that fueled my growth. I built my career step by step, moving from specialist roles into management and ultimately director. My career achievements are the result of conscious decisions, determination, surrounding myself with the right people, and continuous personal development. I know how easy it is to lose oneself in the rush of everyday life.

Today, as a career coach, mentor, and business trainer, I support my clients in finding a professional path that brings fulfillment, enables growth, and leads to success aligned with their values and goals.

I find the greatest satisfaction in working with people who want more from life and are ready to reach for it.

My mission is to raise awareness of the potential each of us carries within and to show how it can be used to build independence, fulfillment, and prosperity on one’s own terms.

I believe that everyone can achieve as much
as they allow themselves.

Coach and Mentor in personal development

I experienced the power of coaching and mentoring when as a newly appointed manager, I was thrown in at the deep end and felt like I was drowning. My team did not understand why I had joined, what it meant for them, or that changes were coming. Very quickly, I found myself facing situations in which several team members failed to deliver on their responsibilities, questioned my decisions, or even escalated complaints to my manager. I felt trapped and left on my own, wondering whether I was truly suited for this role.

I already had leadership experience. I had participated in numerous training programs focused on effective communication and team management. I read books, listened to podcasts, and continuously invested in my personal development. Yet despite all this, I struggled to apply that knowledge in practice. That was when I began seeking support outside the organization.

I decided to work with a business coach, someone who had already gained the experience that still lay ahead of me. Within a short time, after just a few 1-to-1 sessions, we identified what exactly was not working: why tasks were not being delivered, what the level of motivation within the team was, how I could improve my communication, and what concrete actions I needed to start taking.

It was a breakthrough. I built my leadership identity, regained my energy, and began to act consciously and with a clear plan. I developed a strong, independent, and highly engaged team that contributed directly to the growth of the entire organization. Having the support of a coach gave me the reassurance that, regardless of the situation, I had someone by my side who would help me navigate any challenge.

Today, I support others in their professional development and  career growth. I understand what it feels like to face high expectations, moments of doubt, overwhelm, and lack of clarity. My individual approach allows me to tailor tools and direction to each person so that tangible results can be achieved as quickly as possible.

I have delivered over 1,000 hours of coaching sessions, both within organizations and with individual clients.

My coaching sessions take place in an atmosphere of openness and complete confidentiality. At the client’s request, I prepare session notes, allowing them to fully immerse themselves in the thinking and reflection process.

 

Areas I support my clients in:

My experience as Manager and Leader

I have climbed the career ladder step by step, from Specialist to Leader, Manager, and ultimately Director.

Working in international environments has allowed me to understand how management practices and business goals are influenced by cultural and geographical contexts. I thrive in dynamic, fast-paced settings, balancing multiple priorities while maintaining personal well-being. My experience equips me to move seamlessly not only within large corporations but also in small and medium-sized enterprises, helping teams and organizations achieve their goals efficiently and effectively.

Business Trainer – workshops for professional growth

I specialize in delivering training for specialists, team leaders, and middle management.

My trainings focus on developing and applying soft skills through practical exercises, allowing participants to tackle real challenges and find actionable solutions. By the end of the session, participants leave with concrete skills and tools they can start using immediately.

What I enjoy most is seeing participants transform their behavior, boosting their confidence and enhancing effective collaboration within their teams.
