My story
For a long time I lived in two worlds that do not intersect. During my work, I built a career in the customer service industry, leading teams and becoming a senior manager of the customer service department of an international company group, managing a team of 600 people in 16 countries around the world. In my spare time I played improvisation theater and loved humor :)
In 2018, I discovered applied improvisation and realized that I can finally connect the two worlds I love. Business environment and improvisation. On the way to the business improvisation trainer profession, I practiced with professionals in the field in the Netherlands and the USA, introduced this way of running business trainings in Latvia, obtained a master's degree in management psychology and became a certified supervisor.
I developed and implemented the use of applied improvisation methods in supervision and coaching sessions.
I currently work with company teams, managers and entrepreneurs.
I support on following topics individually, in groups and in teams:
-
adapting to the unpredictable and creating solutions
-
inspirational leadership
-
creating a psychologically safe environment in the team/company
-
persuasive and authentic communication
-
implementation and management of change
-
building successful collaborations
-
stress and emotion management
-
inspiring leadership
-
adaptability to unexpected
-
engaging communication
