I strongly believe that real communication is real people. Both people and public relations are my passion. For over 12 years I have been involved in PR & marketing activities that allow companies and experts to achieve outstanding business results by translating words into relationships. Each month I manage to collaborate with leading companies in creating valuable content that allows me to look at the labour market in a different way and challenge the current operational routine. I also participate in discussions and like to compare different points of view. Understanding others helps me come up with quick and workable solutions that deliver great client experience. Say what you think, get noticed, establish relationships, and stay focused – for me, these are the key drivers in communication. In today’s business world we all need to be focused, clear and honest. Consequently, you should not be afraid to talk about what you can do, what you want and what idea you have! Nothing is impossible.
