I am not the expert in your life or work... you are.

I'm a coach. What does it mean?
Mostly, I help professionals overcome doubts, fears, excuses, and inertia.

One client put it best: "Dawid, you helped me get out of my own way." 

Coaching isn't merely about feeling good. Great coaching boosts performance, removes roadblocks, brings clarity, and drives results. 

As an experienced career coach, executive coach, and communication coach, I support clients in becoming stronger public speakers, more effective sellers and negotiators, better collaborators, and more empathetic leaders.

Specifically, I help people navigate high-stakes presentations, difficult conversations, job interviews, media interviews, interpersonal conflicts, cross-cultural challenges, personal or professional uncertainty, and relentless change—mergers, layoffs, AI, burnout, and more.

What industries do I serve?
With 720+ clients across nearly every sector—IT/tech, healthcare, finance, media, education, nonprofit, and more—I’ve worked with mid-level professionals and senior executives on every continent (yes, even Antarctica). With a service base this diverse, the only common thread across all my clients is that they're all open-minded and willing to learn.

My credentials?
I combine my HR and Training & Development background with thousands of hours of coaching experience. I hold certifications from top organizations like the International Coaching Federation (ICF).

​As an LGBTBE certified enterprise, I serve diverse populations across the world, including immigrants, expats, neurodivergent populations, multi-cultural teams, and historically under-resourced or marginalized groups. I attend relevant industry conferences, participate in numerous professional associations, and stay sharp via podcasts, academic journals, and endless books.

​Whether I'm working with a large enterprise, a medium-sized non-profit, a small startup, or an individual entrepreneur, I bring a global mindset to everything I do. I’ve traveled to 36 countries, speak Polish + English + some Spanish, and have a soft spot for cross-cultural communication.

Senior Finance Executive
"Simply put, Dawid is amazing at what he does. He's a great listener and was really good at pinpointing what I needed to hear [...] He made me feel as though it was an honor to work with me when the honor was all mine! His feedback is succinct and easy to follow. Dawid's service isn't just provided in the time you spend speaking to him over the phone and/or email but also in the articles that he's written and references. Working [with] Dawid is an investment not only in your immediate future but for the long term as well..."

Senior Designer & Creative Marketing Leader
"I owe Dawid a VERY hearty thank you. Within 3 months [of working together] I accepted a job with a pay increase of 20 thousand more dollars a year and saved my family 5 thousand extra dollars on top of it in health insurance costs (for a better plan)... To be in my 50s (an age group which often struggles to remain in the job market, and to stay relevant), and to be looking at long term job safety at my new company, is priceless."

---

Senior Legal Counsel (Business & Technology) 
​"Dawid is incredibly talented [...] listens intently and, like any trusted advisor, shares his insights tactfully, knowing that his clients' success (however defined), ultimately, is in their hands. But his probing (or open-ended) questions (depending on what the circumstances require) help his clients to identify, and to articulate, their needs and to get themselves onto the path that will be most rewarding for them.​"

Professional Services Leader
"Too often, I just go through the daily motions and hold on to [emotions] for too long... thanks for being a great listener and allowing me to talk through viable solutions... [Dawid,] You are very engaged and 100% devoted to the conversation at hand."

---

Portfolio & Wealth Management Leader
​"I was fortunate to work with Dawid during a pivotal moment in my career, and I cannot overstate his impact on my professional and personal growth. He provided me with tools to navigate the complex process of switching jobs - a journey emotionally challenging though professionally rewarding. Through personalized coaching sessions, supporting material and unwavering support, Dawid was instrumental in helping me to address challenging times."

---

Enablement Professional
"​Dawid did a phenomenal job in helping me set up my LinkedIn. He also helped me fine-tune my resume and cover letters. I've hired him for his services on two separate occasions, and was blown away with the finished product each time. [Dawid] is a very kind, insightful, diligent man; I can't recommend working with him enough!"

Global Beauty Brand Executive
​"I had the best experience working with Dawid... he helped me navigate a process that can often be quite daunting! The way that he was able to articulate my work experience and professional journey was remarkable...I am absolutely thrilled."

---

Senior (Tech) Developer
"​In my mind the words "Career Coach" were associated with cringey business self-help stuff: bizarre management-speak, motivational posters, "rockstar developers", RISE & GRIND coffee mugs [...] But it was nothing like that at all. Dawid tailors his methodology to the individual [...] my experience was a mixture of career-focused personal coaching, and super-practical, actionable advice. It obviously doesn't hurt that he's incredibly charming and funny, but for me the core of his approach is starting from a deep empathy for the stress and anxiety that career decisions & jobhunting produce for many people. If you're on the fence about talking to him, just go for it. Literally the worst possible outcome is that you'll have a good laugh...​"

His insights, tips, and authentic approach have greatly influenced my own fledgling journey. Dawid’s style, hustle, and authenticity shine through in every interaction, making each session with him both enlightening and enjoyable. If you’re seeking an experienced and effective coach or mentor, Dawid is undoubtedly one of the very best in the world!"
