Bio

'It's The Climb.'

Radosław Piontek

Uwielbiam pracę bezpośrednio z ludźmi.

Pobudza we mnie energię, którą mam w sobie i daje mi pozytywne emocje, którą przekazują mi moi partnerzy. I nowe doświadczenia, które dzięki nim zdobywam.

Lubię trudne sytuacje wymagające budowania: nowej jakości /strategii / pomysłów / produktów / zespołów / reguł. Koncentruję się na poszukiwaniu nowych, czasem
nietypowych, rozwiązań problemów.

26 lat pracy przyniosło sporo wiedzy i doświadczeń: opracowanie strategii i misji firmy, zarządzanie firmą – najpierw kilkuosobową a później ponad 70-osobowym zespołem, rekrutacja, rozwój talentów.

Pomagam jako Trener

To Ty jesteś „gwiazdą” prowadzonych przeze mnie szkoleń. Moja rola polega na przekazaniu Tobie nowych wiedzy i umiejętności, i połączenia ich z tym co już wiesz i umiesz.

Teorię poczytasz w domu. Na szkoleniu zdobędziesz i przećwiczysz nową wiedzę.

I gwarantuję, że będziesz jej później używać!

Stworzyłem programy autorskie bazujące na popełnionych przez mnie błędach i zgromadzonych doświadczeniach:

> „Planuj marzenia” czyli jak codziennie żyć ciekawie i szczęśliwie.

> „Wystąpienia publiczne” czyli jak mówić do grupy ludzi.

> „Praca zespołowa” czyli jak połączyć wodę z ogniem.

> I kilka innych…

 

A dodatkowo:

Pomagam jako Mentor

Doświadczenie jest JEDYNYM I NAJLEPSZYM nauczycielem!

Jako Twój Mentor przekażę Ci doświadczenie i wiedzę niezbędną w Twojej sytuacji.

Zadam odpowiednie pytania i pokieruję Twoim rozwojem aż osiągniesz swój cel.

Zrozumiem Twoją sytuację bo sam już w niej byłem…

Pomagam jako Motywator

Słowo ma wielką moc!

Gdy bazuje na rzeczywistych doświadczeniach i wiedzy, i jest powiedziane z pasją. Słowo najmocniej działa gdy odpowiada na Twoje pytania, rozwiązuje wątpliwości, spełnia potrzeby, motywuje do działania.

> „Ja też mogę!” – Ty też dasz radę, tak jak Einstein, Obama czy Mela.

> „Dlaczego lepiej być szyją niż głową?” – porady dla kobiet walczących z „męskim światem”.

Pomagam jako Konsultant

Oferuję następujące produkty i usługi:

> Wykorzystanie pieniędzy dostępnycvh w Unii Europejskiej

> Strategia, misja i wizja

> Planowanie

> Komunikacja między ludźmi

> Zarządzanie projektem

> Zarządzanie i rozwój zespołu i jego talentów

> Pomoc techniczna: badania, dotacje, ewaluacje, polityki rozwojowe
