Leadership Development
I design and lead programs for leaders and teams navigating the shift from hierarchies to networks, from control to trust.
In the room, we work with what's actually present: the unspoken tensions between people, the authority dynamics playing out in real time, the gap between espoused values and actual behavior. The goal isn't insight for its own sake. It's building the capacity to lead and follow when you can't control the outcome.
I work with executive teams, intact leadership groups, and on open-enrollment programs. Formats range from single sessions to extended developmental journeys. I often work with a team of leadership consultants and executive coaches, because systemic challenges require systemic approaches. The orientation stays the same: slow down, see what's actually happening, build capacity from there.
My core areas:
Leadership and Learning
Why would anyone follow you? And what are you learning from how they respond? Leadership and learning aren't separate competencies, they're the same practice, seen from different angles.
Transformations, Transitions and Creativity
What wants to end? What wants to begin? What emerges in the space between? Transformation is not just leading change, it's also the willingness to be changed.
Uncertainty and Trust
When you can't know the outcome, what holds the work together? Not certainty but something stronger: the capacity to stay in relationship with what we don't yet understand.

"Wojtek was passionate and so very knowledgeable. He took us through some uncomfortable moments for ourselves and he was thoughtful and kind in his approach. He also has a sense of humour, which makes this challenging programme a little easier to work through"
