Profile
As a dedicated interdisciplinary scholar, I am inspired by a deep passion for discovery and the pursuit of rigorous research. Guided by a commitment to originality, my work aims to uncover insights that enrich both academic and professional communities, fostering meaningful discussions and advancing our shared understanding.
I bridge international relations, global business consulting, and leadership advisory to deliver strategic guidance tailored to top executives and organisations operating in an interconnected world. By combining cross-cultural intelligence, geopolitical foresight, and visionary leadership strategies, I empower leaders to navigate complex international dynamics, excel in high-stakes negotiations, and build organisational resilience for long-term success.
I graduated from the College of Banking in Prague with a bachelor’s degree in banking management. Afterwards, I pursued further academic studies and completed a Master of Arts (MA) degree in International Policy and Diplomacy from Staffordshire University, United Kingdom. Currently, I am studying for a Doctorate (PhD) in International Relations and European Studies at the Metropolitan University Prague.
My passion for teaching and public speaking drives engagement with students, business professionals, and diplomatic circles, delivering advanced lectures and compelling presentations that translate complex global issues into practical insights.
In addition, hosting and producing IR thinker, an esteemed international talk show, provides a platform for thought-provoking conversations with leading experts in international affairs, offering nuanced perspectives on global dynamics.
