Bio
Diana Gluhak Spajić
I had a pleasure working with Miljenko during my employment as Market nutritionist and 60/40 Manager at Nestlé Adriatic. Miljenko was a highly skilled professional, with a focus on not only sales volume, revenues, organic growth, but also a great support and leader with impressive people management skills. Miljenko was a source of knowledge and good advice for developing market nutrition strategies and implementation, for all renovated food products that were eventually successfully positioned on the market.
