I’m really proud of this: „We met a year or so ago, at one of the conferences in Kraków. We talked over lunch. Probably you don’t remember me. What we talked about inspired me a lot. I started to implement changes just after that conversation and now I’m heading toward my goal I established back then – starting my own company and teaching people what is strength-based development and how to use it in professional world.
