Executive coaching

"I have completed a cycle of mentoring sessions with Andrea and I would highly recommend her.
Her primary goal is fantastically simple yet perfectly functional: she teaches you to enjoy whatever you are doing and experiencing, no matter how impossible it might seem at the beginning. To this end, she uses her extensive experience in the field, which is extraordinarily inspiring, and her approach further enhances your motivation.
I appreciate not only Andrea's professional contribution but also the female perspective she brings to mentoring. Her strength, empathy, and ability to develop talents in other women are a model for me.
Thank you, Andrea, for showing me that women can excel in the world of business and leadership positions. Your presence in my professional life is invaluable.
I look forward to our continued collaboration within your Women's Circles 2024 (Ženské Kruhy 2024)."

“Peace, balance, and joy. That all can be found in your life when you take a look at your inner world and complicated clutters of self doubt, fear, guilt, and misunderstandings with the help of Andrea Považanová. When you realize that you’re just alright the way you are and that it is enough. When you learn to dream and also make your dreams come true. Andrea is not only an expert in her field but also a very sweet, humane person that can sense out what you need, a person you’re going to leave with a smile on your face. Thank you so much for everything.”
Patrycjusz Zamorski, Europe Director of Talent at Dentons
“Andrea is a truly gifted and inspiring coach who knows how to get to the core of what her clients need. Being a coach myself and having worked with many highly qualified coaches in an international corporate environment over the past twenty years, I understand the importance of building a rapport with clients so that they can explore their goals and find solutions to problems. Andrea delivered all of this for me using a unique blend of coaching models and subtle techniques, some of which involve accessing the subconscious mind. She identified a number of key areas that are drivers for my behaviour, and we carefully explored these one by one. I am very grateful to Andrea for helping me unlock these areas and for giving me the practical tools to achieve tangible results. In my role as Europe Director of Talent, I have also seen how Andrea has helped my colleagues work more successfully in a demanding and competitive environment. It has been a privilege to work with Andrea, and I would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone who is looking to reconnect with their true self and live a fuller and more rewarding life.”

Life Balance Coaching
PhDr. Magdalena Nišponská Ph.D. - University teacher, psychologist
Andrea Považanová is my long-term colleague. I always felt a big respect to he professional overview and very precise, responsible and most importantly human approach to people who she is working with. Together, we have spent a lot of time having beautiful and inspiring debates regarding the methods she uses in her job – mostly about processes which deduces a man from his part, possible blocks or traumas and eventually orient him to inner relation to his life, people around him and a job. In her personal field of work, the topics of recourses and facilitation of personal growth are highlighted – the directions which are lately in the centre of research in organizational and work psychology and coaching as practically oriented growth support. Andrea Považanová is long-term interested in releasing the human potential in direction to his positive self-realization, autonomy feeling and embedding in relationships. The methods, that she commands precisely and in depth, she theoretically and practically integrates according to client’s needs. In a client’s seat I always felt in a safe, non-judgemental environmenr of acceptation and deep human interest. I deeply value her professional opinions, advices and overview, that are always very helpful.
Mgr. Nina Vysloužilova - Senior HR Manager Central and Eastern Europe PHILIPS
What is happiness? What is satisfaction of a game, whether we feel the game or career or even our life? Andrea interested me in first minutes of our meeting and her value deepens in my eyes every day. A bright human being, whose optimism, determinacy and balance show me, that whatever the external influences are, you can still have an inner joy. She is my guide to re-finding of my inner piece, revealing own value, facilitating personal potential and fulfilling my dreams, to which she gives me courage and breaks the boundaries of limitation. The excitement of the game is increasing and I am looking forward to our every meeting, which always puts me forward in my work and personal life. Not that long time ago, I used to ask „What do I want to“, now I ask „What makes me happy“.
