It's great that you take the time to read about me and my professional background and its many incredible milestones that made me ready for this!

 

I was born in Transylvania (a strongly intercultural area in today's Romania) as the eldest of two daughters in an academic Hungarian-Romanian family.

At that times, values, traditions and origins played a huge role in this collectively-oriented society from Eastern Europe. The individual and its personal charachter did not count for much here, only as part of the community. I always wanted to break this pattern - at that time unsciously -  later on fully determined. Each invidual has something special and this is not more or even less important than any other cultural belief.

 

My childhood and youth were strongly influenced by the dark "Zeitgeist" of the communist dictatorship of Ceausescu. FREEDOM and SECURITY for all groups of people who thought and lived DIFFERENTLY, as one of the basic rights and most valuable achievements of mankind - was simply an utopia. Millions of people from other cultural and linguistic groups (Hungarians, Transylvanian Saxons and Banat Swabians, Serbs, Bulgarians, etc.) or simply people of other religions and beliefs (even among the Romanian population) experienced difficult years of political persecution and oppression. Uncertainty and fear also shaped my childhood - fear of BEING DIFFERENT. Today I know how valuable DIFFERENCE is!

 

After the turning point in December 1989, with the collapse of the last iron wall in Eastern Europe, Romania dared to take a very uncertain journey into democracy. During these years, while studying economics, I discovered the extraordinary opportunities my binational background offered me through the topics with which I came into contact again and again. In this way I brought my versatile language skills, a strong belief in the change in mentality in the new generations and my rock-solid will to self-fulfillment in order to achieve meaningful things.

 

Through my work in diplomacy in the field of foreign relations - as an interpreter and project manager for the Hungarian-German cooperation in the region, I came into contact with European development and aid projects by NGOS, international institutions and diplomatic organizations. I also experienced through long stays abroad, not only all the differences in work, life and thinking, but also many similarities between different peoples - ethnic groups. Later I realized that the power of diversity - DIVERSITY.

 

My intensive long-term cooperation with the German Red Cross laid an important foundation for my future career: building bridges to the people behind their projects, cultures, languages, beliefs, worldview, sexual orientation, influences and values.

 

My later, somewhat eventful years in Germany prepared me to go through one of my greatest personal changes: to find my calling. Today I know: no triviality ...

 

From the totality of my experiences from all of my roles that have been exercised for over 14 years while I was working for one of the world's largest IT companies - the concept of my independence - with three clear pillars arose:

Coaching | Diversity | High sensitivity. I now dedicate myself to them.

 

In 2013, I came into contact with the topic of coaching and its powerful effects for the first time at an in-house event. That was the moment of my loudest, inner call to embark on this journey and discover and develop my potential.

Coaching is a wonderful journey in time (from the past to the present into the future) and your own personality.

 

So I learned to work with people through valuable methods and interventions, to accompany them professionally on their path of change. As a certified systemic coach (DVCT), consultant and trainer

I took it in the corporate context. especially many women-related topics:

• Work-life balance for working women

• Quota of women or women and their advancement in management positions

• Role of assistants in the "shadow" of their managers

• Women from foreign cultures: self-worth, roles, courage ... so many wonderful topics

 

The topic of diversity & inclusion has always had my greatest interest. By coordinating a large in-house integration project for refugees from very different arabian cultures (having also an academic background) into the labor market, I became increasingly aware of the important role of the intercultural aspects playing in the integration of an individual in a foreign environment.

 

The topic of high sensitivity crept into my life completely unexpectedly in the last few years and had a high impact on my personal and professional development. Your own high sensitivity - once discovered and accepted - opened up many new perspectives that I would not have thought possible before. Not only as a highly sensitive mother with a highly sensitive child and a highly sensitive dog, but also many highly sensitive friends, work colleagues, acquaintances - I recognized real potential behind the "curse" of this "gift" and the opportunities that I have been using in my life since then. These potentials can be learned wonderfully through coaching and therapeutically alike.

 

The concept of COLORS of CHANGE results out of the collection of major colorful puzzle pieces from my life.

 

This is a warm invitation to all those people who have the courage to get closer to their true self. People who feel their DIFFERENCE and are finally ready to use them courageously in their lives. People who long for authenticity and are ready to take off their masks. Our happiness and success in life begins with ourselves - it is our own responsibility to achieve that.

 

It's time for a colorful change!
