Dana is a cross-disciplinary consultant, mentor, and coach supporting leaders in discovering their authentic path to engage their teams, establish great cultures and live their strategy. With a passion for people, she helps companies, executives, and individuals find purpose beyond profit, communicate that purpose, and act in alignment with it.

"Leaders I work with put meaning back into work and create environments that offer a truly human experience, one beyond rewards and recognition," says Dana. She loves working with people who are ready for the honest intense work a transformation requires. Her work's results bring lasting engagement levels, higher productivity, and, ultimately, higher profits in today's disruptive world.

Dana was born in Slovakia, lived in Australia and the Americas, and calls Prague her home again. These global experiences, diving into different cultures, add yet another facet to the perspectives she brings.

Dana is also the co-founder of the Institute of Internal Communications (www.institutik.cz) and drives a pro bono initiative, "The Fear Project," to deliver practical strategies for tackling your fears and morphing them into a driving force.
