I’ve spent most of my professional career
at the intersection
of performance, systems, and people.
Seventeen years in the corporate financial sector taught me how businesses truly operate – from day-to-day execution and internal processes to sales support and the functioning of large distribution structures.
I’ve been involved in building systems, setting up sales support, and working with the daily reality of what needs to function for strategy to turn into results.
Over time, I began to notice something fundamental:
- Processes can be perfectly designed – and still not work.
- At the same time, capable people can feel exhausted and overwhelmed, while collaboration, communication, and team dynamics begin to suffer.
This is where my second focus naturally emerged – working with people.
A natural shift toward
working with strengths
It wasn’t something I had originally planned.
Rather, the right tool came into my life at the right time.
CliftonStrengths® helped me see differences between people more clearly – not as obstacles, but as powerful assets.
I continue to stay curious about new approaches, trends, and connections, because growth – whether my own or that of others – is not a fixed destination, but an ongoing process.
Coaching, together with the CliftonStrengths® methodology, gave me the language I had been missing.
It helped me name what I had intuitively observed for years:
People don’t become more engaged through pressure – but through understanding who they are, where they are naturally strong, what drives them, and how that fits into the system they are part of.
Today, I bring these two worlds closer together.
On one side, I work with business owners, CEOs, startups who want more space to focus on strategy, growth, and direction.
As their companies evolve, they need reliable operational partner, well-functioning systems, and the right people around them.
CliftonStrengths® can naturally become part of their development – but it’s not a requirement.
At the same time, I continue to work with individuals who want to better understand themselves – their talents, strengths, and natural ways of operating.
Whether they’re looking to grow in their current role or explore a new direction in their career.

When leading a large team, you can eventually experience a kind of “managerial blindness” and isolation. In moments when old approaches no longer work and new ones haven’t yet emerged, discovering your talents is one of the most valuable things you can do for yourself.
You begin to see your daily work from a new perspective, and understanding your talents brings fresh inspiration. Thank you, Katka, for your patience in uncovering my talents and guiding me in applying them in practice.
Thanks to Katka’s work, I finally understood that one of my key talents isn’t just a feeling—it’s a real strength. Since recognizing it, I’ve been able to openly and confidently own it.
Through the CliftonStrengths® assessment, you discover where you can truly excel. Trust the results of this powerful tool and don’t let yourself be influenced by others’ assumptions. Katka has a unique ability to explain how to work with your talents - how to observe them and how to explore them in collaboration with others. It’s a pleasant, engaging, and at the same time highly effective way to simplify your life. Thank you, Katka!
Katka brought a new level of enthusiasm for strengths into my life. Through CliftonStrengths coaching, I learned how to identify, manage, and invest in my talents. My self-awareness has deepened, and my talents have become resources I actively use in both my professional and personal life. They give me energy, joy, and motivation to keep developing them.
I now understand that consciously developing dominant talents turns them into real strengths. What I once did occasionally, I now do consistently - with positive feedback.
Thanks to our sessions, I can clearly and confidently articulate the value I bring.
