People/Strategy/Results

I help leaders treat HR as strategy, not administration.

Focus

What I work on

01

Strategic HR

Making HR part of how the company is run: people decisions that follow the business plan, data leaders actually use, and an HR team that is in the room before the decision, not after it.

02

Competency models & performance

Mapping what each role really does and how it serves the strategy. So when the business shifts, you see the capabilities you already have, and stop hiring what is already in the building.

03

AI adoption

Planning how people take AI into their work, not which tool to buy. Readiness, roles, skills and the change people go through, so AI becomes how the company works, not another rollout nobody uses.

About

No copy-paste HR

I believe three things. People are an investment, not a cost. Lifelong learning keeps people and companies from atrophy. And sustainable growth never comes from performance management alone, but from people who keep growing with the business.

That is also why I keep challenging how theory travels into practice. No method works by copy-paste. Every company is made of individuals and adds up to a whole of its own.

I'm co-founder and Chief Evangelist of Sloneek, an HR platform used across Europe, where I also lead people and culture. I speak about what I run every week.

I lecture at the Faculty of Education, Charles University, and supervise doctoral candidates at LIGS University. Talks in English and Czech.
