Bio
Jonathan Nighswander, CFA
We brought Tomasz into a troubled business lacking leadership where he made an immediate difference, first as director of operations and then as CEO. In addition to bringing expertise in lean manufacturing, Tomasz also turned out to be an excellent judge of talent, recruiting and developing a strong team. Would definitely enjoy the opportunity to work with him again.

I had a pleasure to work with Tomasz since 2014, when he joined Famed Żywiec as an operation director. He came to the company highly skilled in production and technological processes and management. Shortly after initial adaptation, he started to introduce his team new methods of management as Kaizen, 5s system, 8D solutions, etc. The crucial added value Tomek brought in his position by implementation Lean Manufacturing System which enable significantly reduce the costs and continually increase the productivity. Simultaneously, Tomasz has been keeping on his professional and personal development. He is known as strict professional and perfectionist requires accurate tasks performance, however ready to help to anyone who needs it. In short time he gained a natural authority not only in production department but also in the entire company. It was a question of time to appoint him as CEO of the company. Tomasz has become a highly respected leader with strategy visions, open minded, bringing innovative ideas, solutions and executions.
