Bio
Pavla T.
Patrik is a man with strong personal values. Whether in the role as my personal coach or as in management role in StringData, Patrik was inspiring me. He is an experienced people manager, coach and great colleague. He was always ready to listen and support. I would recommend him to management role to any company/culture where there are enough opportunities for collaborative management approach and teamwork.
Jindřich Zmidloch
Patrik is one of the most distinctive and empathic personalities I have ever met. He always acts as an enduring coach as well as openminded fellow and listening friend. In my work I had enough space to operate independently and at the same time I have got his full support anytime I needed. And all of that together is exactly what I consider as a senior leadership. I appreciate passing such experience and I really enjoy Patrik’s positive deviance!
