What team are saying.

  • "I have to say that Klaudyna was one of the best managers I've ever had the pleasure of working with. Her and I have completely different working styles. But we talked with one another about it openly and each made the appropriate changes necessary to work well together. I'll never forget that she took the time to learn the best way to work with me and not just demand that I follow her approach. I give her credit for helping me to be the leader that I am currently in my field. I often think about our interactions when I help guide analysts on my team. I thank her for her patience and her caring approach to leadership."

    — Miranda J.

  • "Klaudyna really demystified the concept of leadership for us. She is the leader that is immersed among us, tackling our problems with us and are engaging in the actual work. She is a buffer for the pressure she is under to allow us to focus on the work. This is a novel experience for me. When working with other leaders before her, leadership used to be linked with authority. However, working with her, I've come to understand that leadership is fundamentally about caring for people. Her actions, even at personal cost, revolve around looking out for us. Every single day. I thank her so much for that."

Every day, I see how much she loves what she does, and it inspires me to strive for the same kind of leadership. She has created a workplace where trust, dedication, and passion thrive, making me proud to be a part of this team. She is the role model I have been searching for. So grateful for her leadership."

On that topic - she has a unique ability to challenge hard while supporting even harder. The trust she placed in us became the foundation of our excelled growth. It's a rare and empowering leadership style that fosters confidence and resilience. You didn't just created and lead our team; you created an environment where we are trusted, challenged, and supported to achieve our best.

    — Monika P.

  • "Klaudyna? She was born to be a leader. What I appreciated the most, as a team leader reporting to her, was that despite her busy schedule, she always found time for me. I distinctly remember Klaudyna once saying, 'It's not about finding the time; we all have enough of it. It's about making the time, prioritizing the right things, and the right people.' This mantra has been a guiding principle in our team because Klaudyna doesn't just preach it; she lives by it. I felt genuinely prioritized every time I sought guidance or support. The commitment to making time for the team have created a culture of trust and collaboration.
