KARINA AS A LEADER
Success to me is gaining freedom. Having the flexibility to work where I want and when, with a good income to afford traveling and independence in choosing with whom I want to work.
Leadership is not about goals.
Great Leaders knowing themselves well.
The future of leadership is about following your intution.
When I think of a leader, I think of someone people are deciding to follow by heart.
I TRY TO BE AS TRANSPARENT AND OPEN AS POSSIBLE ABOUT MY STRENGTHS, WEAKNESSES, AND EXPECTATIONS.

KARINA ON TRUST AND TRANSPARENCY
Karina's career has been marked by challenges in trusting colleagues who did not always meet her expectations. She tackles this by being transparent about her strengths, weaknesses, and expectations, and by demanding the same openness from her colleagues. This approach, although not foolproof, has helped her build stronger, more reliable professional relationships.
KARINA ON LEADING WITH EMPATHY
Karina's journey emphasizes the importance of empathy in leadership. Inspired by her first boss, who balanced empathy with clear feedback, she strives to lead with the same compassion. She believes that true leadership involves understanding and connecting with team members on a personal level. By showing vulnerability and sharing her own struggles, Karina fosters deeper bonds and trust within her team, leading to a more committed and cohesive unit.
THE MORE BALANCED YOU ARE AS A LEADER, THE BETTER LEADER YOU ARE.
