Trenér, Facilitátor, Konzultant

Something for work
Milan learned a lot at P&G, where he rose from the position of sales representative, through the development of his sales team, to the highest position of sales director. He likes change, so he exchanged the corporate environment of the American giant for a family-owned French company, for which in the Czech Republic he first ran a cheese factory in Sedlčany (Lučina) and gradually all its branches (Král Sýrů, Pribináček, Apetito). As Milan says, it was probably his most favorite job - beautiful brands, great colleagues and factories in the most beautiful places in Bohemia. Cheese goes with wine, so he and his partner built and owned a winery in beautiful Mikulov for about 10 years. From the sale of fast-moving goods and food, he eventually switched to the service sector, where he is dedicated to helping clients in the sale of real estate and companies.
He believes that people like to learn when they are shown why it will help them ... and that there is a piece or at least a bit of an inquisitive child in each of us.

Something personal
When Milan needs to relax, he prefers to go for a bike ride or a run, switch off, be silent ... sweat and look at nature. Every year he tries to go somewhere he hasn't been before, and if there are mountains and the sea, it's nirvana.
1) How would you describe your work in one sentence?
I meet people and try to share something inspiring during these meetings, learn something from each other and ideally change at least part of our previous stereotypes.
2) What has influenced you in your life and how is it reflected in your work?
I've been through a few jobs and I'm always curious about what I can learn. I enjoyed getting to know a lot of people during those years and I am happy when we meet after some time and say that we fondly remember the years together.
3) Why do you work for humancraft?
Because it's great to work in a team of people who can do something and always want to improve.
4) What has been your biggest challenge in humancraft so far?
Every day with a new group of participants is a challenge!
5) What effect does your work have on your personal development and professional path?
I don't like stereotypes, and this work is exactly about developing a person through the differences he has with each client, training and group.
6) What do you think are the biggest challenges facing corporate education today and how is humancraft trying to address these challenges?
We have to give education an extra value compared to what people can find on the Internet, look at a video or read and extract from AI. We try to be one step ahead of all this and above all to give it a human soul.
