As a child, I found joy in crafting and exploring with LEGOs, a passion that fostered my penchant for design and strategic thinking. Today, with a family of my own, the art of redesigning has seamlessly woven into the fabric of my daily life, alongside raising two wonderful children. Balancing structure and independence have been key in my journey. While I appreciate the stability structure brings, I'm always eager to rethink and innovate for growth. Stepping out of my comfort zone fuels my passion for positive change, making me more adaptable in today's fast-paced world
I believe in building a solid foundation to weather tough times and turn challenges into opportunities. I love tackling complex problems by understanding the root causes, mapping out scenarios, and considering human factors—it's what drives me.
With over 15 years of experience spanning diverse industries and roles, I've honed my skills in building and leading teams, both within multinational corporations and SMEs. Through these endeavours, I've remained steadfast in my commitment to value creation and fostering a culture of continuous improvement. Starting my professional career, I dove headfirst into a dynamic and international team, quickly embracing a robust project mindset. From leading teams to navigating corporate dynamics, every step taught me invaluable lessons. Transitioning to the consulting realm, I found my stride, blending a project-oriented approach with an entrepreneurial spirit that defines my work ethic. My passion for understanding people and markets led me to immerse myself in executive
searches across diverse industries like FMCG, banking, pharmaceuticals, IT, and telecommunications. Along the way, I honed my skills in using diagnostic tools to uncover the motivations that drive individuals and teams.
In the SME sector, my role as a regional HR leader reinforced my belief in fostering development-oriented teams with an ownership mindset. These experiences not only shaped
me professionally but also personally, enriching my understanding of sales, logistics, leadership, motivation, and team dynamics. This led me to seek out increasingly complex and comprehensive, internationally recognized methodologies and incorporate them into my toolkit. I embarked on organizational design training, which opened up new dimensions professionally, allowing us to focus on resources and involve clients in jointly determining the direction of change. Applying a resource-focused approach, we reimagined several client onboarding programs, candidate experience- enhancing selection processes, and performance evaluation processes.
My academic journey culminated in a master's degree in economics from Budapest Business School specializing in Management and Organization. Over the years, I continuously expanded my toolkit and obtained numerous certifications.
At the heart of my professional ethos lies a dedication to promoting change, creating
structures that empower individuals, and embracing the iterative process of planning and
redesigning. Grounded in a human-centered approach, I strive to catalyse transformation while
fostering meaningful connections with clients and colleagues alike.

Nearly half a year ago, we started working together with Noémi. I've always found it difficult to delegate and share tasks with my team. Although I wanted to give more freedom and empower my direct reports, I constantly tried to control every little detail and decision.
Noémi's approach and methods exceeded my expectations. With her support and leadership, I was able to recognize the beliefs that hindered delegation and empowerment. She was able to shed light on perspectives that I hadn't considered before and helped me understand how to operate the team more effectively.
By encouraging the building of a strong and reliable team and supporting the expansion of my leadership toolkit, I managed to create the freedom and flexibility I longed for. All this while maintaining effective direction and control.
I thank her for her comprehensive support and guidance leading to changes. With her help, new opportunities truly opened up to me that I hadn't seen or dared to explore before.
Business Unit Lead (SME Sector)
When I joined the organization as a newly appointed leader, I faced the challenge of having my open, empowering leadership style completely unfamiliar to my colleagues compared to the previous rigid management approach.
I sought Noémi's assistance to help harmonize the new and old leadership styles in practice. Under her guidance, we continued the work to find the balance that enables the team to operate more independently and responsibly while still working effectively and cohesively.
During the workshops, we had the opportunity to share our thoughts and concerns, and together we sought solutions on how to integrate the old and new styles in practice. Noémi helped us understand each other's perspectives and support each other through the changes.
In individual sessions, Noémi helped me explore the leadership skills that allowed me to lead the team in a supportive and motivating manner. This allowed the team members to gradually adapt to the new management style and increasingly accept and apply it in their daily work.
Head of Organization (Nonprofit Sector)
Noémi acted as a true partner in the planning and execution of our company's generational shift. With months of dedicated work and expertise, she helped us thoroughly examine current processes and dynamics.
She skilfully guided us through the complex world of generational transition. Continuously assessing the company's current state, she identified strengths, challenges, and crafted the appropriate strategy for a smooth transition.

The process of generational transition wouldn't have been as successful without her dedication and expertise. What I particularly appreciated about Noémi was her holistic approach, coupled with consideration for human aspects, identifying colleagues' motivation and commitment to new opportunities.
Owner, CEO (Healthcare Sector)
The coaching process helped me take a step back and prioritize among the many different professional opportunities. It allowed me to see my own functioning with focus. Through our collaboration, I managed to find the direction of whom and what type of businesses I want to build in the future. I became aware of my own strengths and what I should pay attention to, so that I can progress faster in smaller, yet consistent steps, compared to big leaps.
I realized that the abundance of open doors generates a lot of tension within me. Therefore, I started prioritizing the opportunities and weighing them, narrowing down the options. I learned to set boundaries regarding my own and my environment's operational elements. I can make decisions about the next steps with focus and moderation. I don't allow my attention to slip away.
It helped a lot that Noémi quickly understood the cause of my obstacles and was able to quickly clarify for me exactly what I am sabotaging in my own functioning. It's good to realize that we need an external perspective, someone who can clearly and impartially show us a mirror. I enjoy working with Noémi because she credibly and confidently supports me in achieving my goals.
Máté (Business Analyst, Entrepreneur)
As a newly appointed, novice leader, I got in touch with Noémi. I met in her a thorough, conscientious, and well-prepared professional, who is thoughtful and reliable. Though I'm not an easy case, Noémi managed to keep me focused, helping me concentrate on what she said and recognize my blind spots. Calmly, modestly, yet decisively, she guided me on the path to becoming a leader, which was extremely beneficial. The occasions and the tasks thereafter prompted further reflection, thus advancing not only professionally but also in the development of my personality.
I wholeheartedly recommend Noémi to both novice and experienced leaders alike. I consider myself fortunate to regard her as my guide on the journey to leadership, both professionally and personally.
