Rozwój kompetencji menedżerskich i liderskich to nie jednorazowe działanie, ale przemyślany, procesowy i konsekwentnie realizowany kierunek. 🚀

Wystartowaliśmy z 7 edycją Leadership Academy – programu rozwojowego dla kadry menedżerskiej, który wspiera w skutecznej współpracy, otwartej komunikacji i osiąganiu wspólnych celów biznesowych.

Leadership Academy to ważny element naszego podejścia do rozwoju przywództwa. Stawiamy na działania, które są dopasowane do wyzwań organizacji i codziennej pracy menedżerów, łącząc wiedzę, praktykę, wymianę doświadczeń oraz pracę na konkretnych sytuacjach zawodowych.

W tym roku idziemy o krok dalej i uruchamiamy dodatkowo program interwizji menedżerskich dla kierowników. Dotychczas interwizje były elementem warsztatów, a teraz stają się odrębną, regularną formą wsparcia rozwoju.

Czym są interwizje?

To moderowane spotkania, podczas których uczestnicy pracują na autentycznych sytuacjach zawodowych. Są kontynuacją rozwoju rozpoczętego w ramach Leadership Academy oraz praktycznym uzupełnieniem sposobu zarządzania, który rozwijamy w naszej organizacji.

Ich celem jest wzmacnianie kierowników w bieżących wyzwaniach, utrwalanie narzędzi i postaw rozwijanych podczas Leadership Academy, podnoszenie jakości decyzji menedżerskich, komunikacji i współpracy oraz budowanie spójnego, świadomego stylu zarządzania.

To profesjonalne i długofalowe podejście do rozwoju przywództwa, które przekłada się na codzienną efektywność pracy zespołów, lepsze decyzje, większą odpowiedzialność i skuteczniejszą współpracę. 🤝

Bo dobre przywództwo nie dzieje się przypadkiem — rozwijamy je świadomie, krok po kroku.

🎥 The newest episode of is now available!

Vacuum metallurgy. Aerospace. VIM.
Sounds like jargon?

In practice, it’s a field where quality and process repeatability build a crucial competitive advantage.

In the latest episode, Adam Adamek talks with Michał Litwin, a SECO/WARWICK expert, about the best technology for this demanding sector and about VIM (Vacuum Induction Melting) technology, used by aerospace giants.

What was supposed to be “just another technical topic” quickly turned into a fascinating conversation about:

📌 aerospace industry requirements
📌 melting metals under vacuum
📌 where the real business value is hidden
📌 and why metallurgy is far more strategic than most people realize

It’s also a look at the world of vacuum metallurgy from the perspective of genuine curiosity, questions, and first discoveries related to VIM technology.
