Bio
Kamila Zdrenka-Szostak
Michalina is a wonderful People Partner! She builds strong relations based on trust and mutual respect. Reads people minds easily and offers support in the areas they struggle with via coaching, mentoring and dedicated initiatives. Michalina is extremely engaged and dedicated to her work, putting all her heart into the job. Delivers high value projects balancing people and business focus. Always ready to help, a great team player, very caring and supportive. She has a practical approach to projects, especially tools and processes she implements - user experience, stakeholders buy-in and business value are always her focus. Michalina's well structured and analytical mind was of huge help to me whenever we were executing complex and cross company projects - a perfect sparring partner! I always appreciated her open and transparent communication. She’s eager to share and seek feedback, quick to act on, always on the hunt for self-development. Her head is full of high quality recommendations: authors, books, publications, reports, frameworks and tools - you can always count on her in any area connected with leadership, soft skills or HR in general. I wish our professional paths cross again!

From the moment I met Michalina I knew she will add value to our team and uplift everyone's spirit. What I didn't know was how creative, ambitious, strategic, and observant Michalina is. She simply brings the best in people in every possible environment. Michalina ensures smooth operations and cooperation within teams along with the wellbeing of everyone in her range. Most importantly, she is a great friend! :)
