Before I started working with Vesna, I was doing “OK,” but my self-confidence, as well as feelings of fulfillment and joy in life, were far from ideal. From a professional standpoint, I felt stuck and unsure of what I wanted from my career. Vesna helped me identify and remove some deep-rooted beliefs, and as a result, I have found a renewed energy and clear vision in both my professional and personal life. Her professionalism, empathy and deep knowledge of various coaching techniques make every session extremely valuable and insightful. I know I still have a lot of work to do, and it’s a process, but I am amazed at how quickly the breakthroughs started happening for me. After only 5 sessions, people around me started noticing a change in me and my behavior. I was able to achieve a completely new level of confidence in all of my interactions.
I experienced the individual business coaching package with Vesna for the Team of Tehnološki park Ljubljana d.o.o. as a magical experience, both personally and at the team level, which was fortunate to receive this valuable gift. New and improved connections were formed among colleagues, and our way of communicating was enhanced. It is priceless to witness colleagues’ willingness for trust, their courage to step out of their comfort zone (which is often a discomfort zone), all with the purpose of getting to know themselves, including their shadows, improving themselves, opening their hearts to change and finding hidden sources of potential. Even in the oracles in Delphi it was written: “Know thyself and you will know the whole world.” Thank you Vesna for your contagious laughter, your perceptiveness.
The journey we walked together = a journey I would recommend to everyone!
“Vesna is one of those rare people you’ll come across in your professional career. With more than two-decades in the world of business, her understanding of different roles at different levels, especially executive level, runs deep. So in conversation, you really feel like she ‘gets it’. She listens with an intent to guide, support and challenge in all the right ways. Her high emotional intelligence creates an environment of trust and openness, to be able to challenge yourself and to see things in a new light. Wherever you might find yourself on your own journey, I would strongly recommend collaborating with Vesna to bring a clear path forward that will push you in the right ways and ultimately help you in becoming more fulfilled, personally and professionally.”
“In my European leadership role overseeing 2.000 employees across 15 markets, Vesna played a vital role as our regional HR director. Together, we focused on developing a leadership culture that combined strategic thinking with compassion and understanding.
Vesna has a unique balance between a smart brain and an open heart, which enables her to connect easily with people. This quality has been instrumental in shaping a leadership culture that leads from the heart, fostering trust and collaboration and driving us toward exceptional results.”
I had the privilege to work with Vesna, an essential member of my leadership team responsible for People and Culture in my CEO role within the CEE region at Bisnode, today the Dun & Bradstreet Group. Thanks to her efforts, we improved our leadership capabilities, people development, and engagement, reaching the highest engagement score in the Group. I especially admired Vesna's natural approach to driving improvement - she actively worked with people, focusing on real, continuous improvement, and helped us understand our strengths and areas for development. If you need an experienced, structured, and hardworking individual capable of being brutally honest yet maintaining a nice communication style, with experience in people leadership, continuous improvement, and coaching, and who is truly dedicated to moving you and your team to the next level, then you have found the right person.
I've had the pleasure of working with Vesna for close to seven years as country manager and a member of the Central Eastern European leadership team. Vesna is a great professional. She's really result-oriented. Also, her attention to detail is fantastic, but at the same time she can also look at the bigger picture. She can take a holistic view of things, which I think is valuable when you might be stuck or simply need a different opinion or a view. And she has the rare quality of being both pragmatic and emphatic. That is truly valuable when you need to work with people. But on the other hand, also look at the bigger picture and deliver results.
