Growth facilitator and writer supporting founders and leaders in navigating the next leap of growth — for themselves, their team and their business.
The hardest part of scaling a company is often scaling the people leading it.
Sustainable growth requires the capacity to know the way, show the way, and build the way.
To scale growth and not problems, the business operations need to be commercially solid and organisationally sound.
But sustainable growth requires more than changing how you work.
It requires changing how you think, relate and lead.
As a founder and experienced commercial executive, I have learnt that true transformation requires both human-centric leadership and operational excellence — because you cannot build a scalable growth without building the capacity of the people leading it.
“Tiina is one of the most remarkable people I’ve ever worked with, combining a mindful and human-centric leadership philosophy to a tough as nails operational capability to steer even seemingly impossible goals.”
— Lauri Järvilehto, Professor of Practice, Aalto University
