About

You, in a Changing World

The world is changing faster than ever, and so are the opportunities to lead, learn, and create in ways that were unimaginable just a few years ago. My mission is to help you navigate this transformation - not by chasing every trend, but by building your own unique, strategic path forward.

Massive Transformative Purpose

Beneficial Abundance

We live in a pivotal time. Technology - and AI in particular - is creating unprecedented abundance in knowledge, productivity, and creative capacity. But abundance alone isn't enough. It must be beneficial - aligned with human purpose, values, and wellbeing.

This is why I do what I do. I believe every professional deserves to understand, harness, and strategically partner with AI in a way that amplifies their unique strengths rather than replacing them. That's the heart of Beneficial Abundance.

Background

I started my career in leadership development with AIESEC, the world's largest youth-run organisation, where I served as National President of the Czech Republic and Regional Director for Central and Eastern Europe.

After completing two master's degrees - in International Business and Psychology - I moved to London and spent over a decade designing and delivering global leadership programmes for organisations like HSBC, Shell, Ford, and Accenture through Future Considerations and my own company, RQ Genesis.

A scholarship to Singularity University at NASA Ames in 2012 was a turning point - it opened my eyes to exponential technologies and their transformative potential. This led me to join OpenExO as Chief Learning Officer, where I built a training and certification ecosystem for a community growing from 100 to 30,000+ across 130+ countries.

Today, I bring all these threads together in AI adoption training and education. The AI Blueprint framework - comprising the AI Partnering Scale, AI Compass, and Human-AI Partnering Model - is designed to help professionals at every level build their own strategic path to AI partnership.
