I believe that every individual you meet on this great journey we call “life” is a teacher. But only a few make you and your steps in life braver, more insightful, easier and more impactful. My first meeting with Urška was almost “random”, but for me and later for my leadership team, in many ways “indelible”. The steps we and our colleagues take to lay foundations of one of more dynamic companies in Slovenia, are comprised with many insights, connected to a better understanding of mutual relationships, with erasing the all to often insurmountable hierarchical boarders with the power of arguments, effective realisations of our real needs from our focus groups and finding long-term solutions, today more confident and especially more coordinated. I am sure, that with this kind of companion paired with a full backpack of carefully selected tools, despite the unpredictably nature of challenges, which we might face in the future, there are no obstacles for continued development and growth of the company and all of their remarkable employees. Urška, in the name of all Lidl employees I express my honest gratitude to you and your passionate team and wish you loads more inspiring accomplishments and happy clients.

In Petrol, innovation is well integrated in our daily life. We don’t just follow the trends but we rather create our own. Because of the wide spectre of innovation and products Petrol deals with, it is often very challenging to find the right people for the right position. We have already worked with Urška Jež in the past and that is why we again decided to collaborate with her and her Transformation Lighthouse team. We were searching for new UX/UI designers for our app and for this, we tried the new innovative approach they offer for employee/talent search - the online hackathon. Transformation Lighthouse did not disappoint. With their professional approach, domain knowledge, understanding of the employment market challenges, along with their vast base of young people, they ensured that we gathered a greater pool of talents than ever before with the very first online hackathon in Slovenia. We also received a number of brilliant design suggestions for our app. Now, it is on us to put the app out there and to the users.

At Iskratel, we are aware of the importance of leadership and its influence on the organisation culture and business excellence. For us, leadership development means more than just developing leaders. We set up a project called !N leadership development, because we want to be !N on the leadership skills and see further and beyond. In order to develop those leadership competences, we needed help from people that understand and show the meaning of leadership development, have all the necessary skills and experience, and can share this knowledge with others. Urška, the CEO at Transformation Lighthouse, is a person that really cares about the positive changes and progress. She is a fountain of energy and passion. She delivers more than it's expected of her. Through our cooperation, Urška gave us a voice and taught us the language of innovation, which gave us understanding of strength and opportunity of the invisible and unpredictable especially in these uncertain times. Fear is the fuel for courage, thinking about new ideas fuels our minds. Innovation connects us, great business partners in this project inspire us to do more. Urska thank you for being my fuel and my inspiration.

Inspiring, seamless and transformative would be a three word summary of my experience with Transformation Lighthouse. We hooked up with Urška and her team in order to introduce a new online recruitment tool to our clients. They provided not only knowledge and expertise but also a true understanding of partnership. Transformation Lighthouse went went beyond the usual call of duty in facilitating value creation for both the product and my team. Their approach is innately driven and as such highly infectious. Be prepared to be pushed and challenged for that is where any tangible outcome begins.
