In my own journey, more than 25 years ago, I was suddenly confronted with a debilitating illness that continues to impact me today. However, I never allowed this to hinder my career progression. I have risen to the position of a Director, accumulating over two decades of experience in Senior Leadership Development and Coaching, marked by a demonstrable track record of turning around and fostering growth within manufacturing, service-based, and not-for-profit sectors.

My competencies encompass various facets, including:

• Business Strategy (Disruptive Business Modeling, Hoshin Kanri, Balanced Scorecard): I provide strategic insights, leveraging disruptive business models and frameworks like Hoshin Kanri and Balanced Scorecard.
• Strategic Leadership Development (Executive & Team Coaching, Mentoring & Facilitating): I specialize in developing strategic leaders through executive and team coaching, mentoring, and facilitation.

I have always been interested in people— who they are, what they do, and why they do it. I am naturally open and particularly curious about cultures different from my own. Coaching, for me, offers the best combination of my skills and interests in a constructive and useful way for others. I believe we all have potential, and coaching is a key enabler to activate this potential, regardless of our role or the context of our work. Coaching facilitates personal insight, learning, clarity, and authenticity, providing an opportunity to pause before consciously re-engaging to reach our desired goals. Outcomes may include a clearer way forward, increased self-awareness and learning, and clarity on deeper purpose.

I am constantly learning, with my current focus on understanding the interplay between the individual and the systems they come from. Additionally, I am studying how to work more somatically to enable better awareness of the whole self. As a lifelong animal lover, I am also interested in animal-facilitated learning and how horses may be part of the coaching process.

Jakub Grzadzielski's journey began as a chorister in the renowned Stuligrosz Choir, touring throughout Europe during his childhood. Transitioning from music to sports, he played center for a major Polish regional basketball team until a serious knee injury altered his career path. During his pursuit of education in Electrical Engineering at the University of Technology in Poznan, he shifted to amateur boxing.

While originally intending to pursue a Ph.D., family life intervened, and Jakub humorously remarks that he plans to finish his doctoral studies "when my daughters leave home for college." In his 17 years leading teams in the automotive industry, Jakub discovered his true passion: working with and for people. Helping others achieve success brings a sense of accomplishment that he treasures.

I partner with leaders and teams to develop collective collaborative leadership. During the past 2 years, globalization, digitalization, and high complexity have required organizations to shift from individual leadership to collective leadership development to become more resilient. So, I help leaders enhance their self-awareness, systemic and complex thinking, presence, and leadership maturity to learn, adapt, and thrive amidst these complex dynamics. As a result, they become better-equipped learners to foster cross-functional collaboration, promote collective intelligence, and impact diverse stakeholder groups. Holistically, I address development by engaging the whole person for long-lasting results and a more significant impact. By applying an evidence-based and systemic approach to leadership and coaching, I help teams and leaders increase their performance (what they do now), capability (their ability to perform in the future), and capacity (how they do more with less). Moreover, I draw on my 14+ years of work experience in multiple industries and global organizations, such as the United Nations, to bring a multicultural perspective and support my clients the best. In addition, I am pursuing an M.A. in Human Development and a Ph.D. in Organizational Development and Change at Fielding University, and I am a bilingual business professional (MBA).

I am originally from the east coast of Canada, now honored to live and work on Treaty 7 land, the traditional territories of Blackfoot and Métis people, which is now known as Calgary, AB, Canada. The convergence of the Elbow and Bow Rivers has been a gathering place for many years, providing life to the community. Personally, I feel most alive when connected to nature, community, and beside the ocean or, for now, these rivers.

For many years, I have been passionately engaged in social change and progress. In our current world, there is an increasing awareness of our connections to each other and the planet. Often, people look outside themselves for solutions when the capacity exists within—within themselves, teams, community, and systems. My role is to invoke that capacity!
