Bio
Anna Górska
I had the pleasure of working with Karina for two years as the ICCA volunteers when we were both chairing the ICCA Central European Chapter. I found her enthusiasm and dedication very inspiring especially while dealing with the cross culture challenges in our multinational Chapter. She takes her leadership very seriously. She had creative ideas all the time and I could always count on her willingness to help and support me.
André Petzold
Insight, professionalism and responsibility are the words that come to mind when I think about Karina. During my years working with meetings and city marketing I have had the pleasure of discussing industry trends, best practice and smart business solutions on many occasions with Karina which helped me a lot in my own professional development. Above all, I have always been impressed of Karina´s ability to quickly analyze and understand a problem and come up with a well reasoned suggestion how to solve the situation. I also want to emphasize Karina’s early engagement for sustainable development which has had a substantial impact on lifting sustainability on the agenda in the industry both in Stuttgart and Germany. Karina is a visionary manager who will raise every organization she is working for to the next level and I strongly recommend working with her!
