Testimonials of Equilibrium
I worked on transitioning from the CEO role to the role of medical guarantee and visionary leader & ambassador of Loono. Thanks to my Mentor, this was a smooth process that taught me a lot about myself too. We became not only a Mentor and a Mentee but also close friends.
Kateřina Šédová
Founder & CEO at Loono, Project Manager at Fakultní nemocnice Bulovka
Great outcome of the programme was the perfect match in both years – two amazing Mentors showed me (by example) that it is feasible to have both children & a career in top management. Today I have two kids and am happy as a mother as well as a leader. I learned to trust that dreaming & daring is the right way to be happy and balanced. Additionally, I got permanently inspired, expanded my network, and won friends.
Barbara Straková
Head of Business Excellence at Siemens
A surprising outcome of the programme was that I found an inspiring community of caring and supportive people who are always available to give advice or listen. Some of the people have become my friends since then. I am very grateful for the Equilibrium programme and the impact it has on the cultivation of the business environment.
Yvona Tošnerová
Member of the Board of Directors & Chief Risk Officer at Raiffeisen stavební spořitelna
The most surprising outcome was the impact of my Mentee not only on my professional path, which has been boosted almost immediately but also on my private life and overall life satisfaction, which increased enormously.
Zuzana Dvořáková
Business Development Manager South Eastern Europe at White & Case LLP
The positive outcome of the programme was a new international position in the field I have been working in, spreading my life across 2 cities, opening my eyes to new opportunities in front of me, and having a great partner to discuss work and my role as a woman in a leadership position.
Edita Kudlacova
Head of Radio at European Broadcasting Union
The surprising outcome of the programme was finding out that I can stand on my own feet, plan everything, promote it, and start doing what I enjoy. It was necessary to overcome the great fear, which I was helped by my great Mentor and all workshops that I was able to complete thanks to this programme.
Libuše Langova
Swimming Coach
My Mentor and all the great ladies from the Equilibrium programme supported me and cheered me to find courage and confidence again. Helped me to face and solve problems. Step by step we re-formulated and reconstructed my business activities so I could start again from a better new beginning.
Erika Lori
CEO at Diamond Club
My Mentor enabled me to see the whole picture of myself, my impact, and my potential. It allowed me to rise, shine and enjoy being more visible and authentic. Play BIG. I found my career path and started to define my success.
Simona Šašková
Leadership Coach & Mentor
The surprising outcome of the programme for me was the fact that this whole experience was a total confidence boost. I’ve learned a lot about myself, and my Mentor guided me to realize my full potential. But what was more important – not to be scared to say what I need, what I want, and what I deserve. I’ve always thought that networking is not a thing for me, but this program showed me that networking is one of my natural skills. Lesson learned, even with amazing overlap to my personal life.
