Dear HR Professional / Event Organiser,

You already know how challenging it can be to run successful and impactful training sessions and events. One of the most important aspects you are in charge of is how your audience FEELS when they experience your seminar, workshop or training.

The most important factor that affects this, is the trainer/ speaker you choose to speak at your event.

Jelena’s unique blend of transformative coaching and training will ensure that your employees/ attendees will:

  • Be inspired to ask themselves powerful questions they haven’t thought of before 
  • Learn how to identify their core values – both personal and professional and increase their self-awareness
  • Understand how to align their natural strengths and passions with their career/calling 
  • Learn how to understand and enhance their leadership style
  • Grasp what lies behind self-limiting beliefs and lack of confidence 
  • Understand how self-knowledge leads to increased confidence and success 
  • Learn how to add value, develop a winning mindset and create win-win scenarios through assertive communication

Testimonials

“Jelena spoke at the 4th edition of English Talks in London in 2018, and she was an absolute pleasure to work with. She captivated the audience with her mixture of practical and inspiring information on how to make conscious career choices and build a life that we will love. She was very professional throughout, and we look forward to working with her again in the future.”

Daniel Zuchowski

Founder, English Talks

“I worked with Jelena to arrange an International Women’s Day event for our Women’s network internally. She helped to arrange speakers, gave great insight on the format of the event and provided relevant topic suggestions based on her experience as a coach. On the day of the event, she delivered her content professionally and the event was a great success as attendees came away with advice they could implement immediately. Thank you Jelena!”

“I hired Jelena to speak at my event Collab, Create and Crush in Camden, London in April 2019. She spoke alongside international speakers, serial entrepreneurs and leaders – we had a great mix of profiles and nationalities. Jelena’s topics bring together spirituality, business and career fulfilment.
She asked the audience thought-provoking questions leading them to find the answers within themselves. This is empowering and refreshing. I look forward to working with Jelena again!”

Michael Butler

USA Book Publisher

“Jelena co-hosted a fantastic workshop session on “Leading with confidence” during our inaugural departmental women’s away day. The content was simple but thought-provoking and the session ran very smoothly, despite being in a remote setting. Jelena’s presentation was really engaging, allowing all ~60 women to actively participate, both as part of one large group as well as in smaller break-out groups. The content was relevant to women of all levels of seniority, allowing us to really bond as a group of colleagues as well as providing practical tips to overcoming our ‘saboteurs’. Thanks Jelena!”
