My journey
I am Karin Straková with 20 years of experience in HR and change management, including 10 years working in Western Europe – Italy, Belgium, and France. I have served as a member of top company leadership and collaborated with senior management and boards. I have led complex projects in digital transformation, M&A, reorganization, and cultural transformation.
I hold a degree in psychology and, during my time in Paris, pursued an Executive MBA at the prestigious international ESCP Business School, whose EMBA program ranks among the best in the world.
My practice also includes other important certifications. I am a certified change management coach under the globally recognized Prosci methodology. In addition, I am a certified Gallup CliftonStrengths coach.
I am fluent in English, French, and Italian.
Resoneti Index
Through targeted diagnostics, I compare the direction in which your company wants to grow with how change management currently operates. I identify to what extent the people strategy is truly aligned with your business strategy and where gaps arise. The outcome is a unique, clear report revealing both strengths and weaknesses in change readiness, providing the ideal starting point.
Transformational programs
I will guide you through the entire change process, from strategy to the day-to-day functioning of teams. As part of corporate transformational programs, I also offer bootcamps and consultations for managers, giving them targeted support at key moments of change.
Individual programs
Start the change with yourself. I offer practical tools and support for change management in the form of webinars, individual consultations, and coaching.
Strengths
Discover your strengths with the Gallup CliftonStrengths methodology and learn to consciously use them to achieve your goals.
I am a partner for CEOs, HR, and leaders who want to drive change effectively.
I guide companies through technological changes so that they are truly embraced with understanding, energy, and commitment. I combine the best of HR and change management, from strategy through leadership to the everyday functioning of teams.

The human side of every transformation
60%
60% of challenges in AI implementation are related to people, not technology. People often lack experience, fear change, or distrust new tools. Transformation is a change that starts with people and emotions. I stand alongside leaders and HR teams who want to manage change with respect and trust.
Change that didn’t end in a presentation, but in results.
I helped companies go through reorganization, adopt new technologies, and align people with the vision.
