About me

After completing her university degree in Computer Science and Automation Engineering, Karina gained comprehensive experience in large digitalization projects in the roles of a Product Owner, Service Manager, and Requirements Engineer before moving to the Scrum Master roles and, later on, to Agile Transformation and Business coaching.

Since 2009, Karina has been working as an external and in-house consultant, trainer, and coach in financial services, insurance, automotive, and energy industries, as well as for several governmental and non-profit organizations in the EMEA region.

With her 15+ years of experience in digital product development in all stages from inception to termination and her international background of working with teams in the EMEA and APAC regions, Karina is a versatile coach and team facilitator who brings first-hand experience from working on projects in various industries, along with a deep knowledge of business agility, lean and agile frameworks, accompanied by the ICF PCC accreditation and Professional Coaching certification by Erickson International Institute.

Today, Karina’s work is focused on agile and business transformation at scale, organizational design and development, service design, and big room events facilitation, as well as on leadership and team coaching, which embraces her interest in innovation, ethical leadership, and employee empowerment.
