I had a pleasure to work with Monika for the last year. She is the best leader I have ever met in my career. She is patient, kind and perfectly organised. Her communication skills are tremendous and very motivated. I have learned from Monika a lot during this year and the practical lessons I got have a lot more value than any courses or trainings. I wish our paths cross again in a future. Good luck Monika.


Ferran Negre Pizarro

Monika was an outstanding HR manager in the company.

Monika was not only onboarding and recruiting potential employees (including me) but she was always taking care of the well-being of the company culture as well as their employees once they were hired. She was extremely helpful and responsive. Monika was also very well organized so you could always find the information needed in advance instead of asking directly.

I would recommend Monika to any company looking for empowering their HR department.
