I work best where it's necessary to understand the whole.

When optimizing parts stops working.

I don't start with what's broken. I care about why the whole works the way it does.

I work with systems—companies, products, teams, and decision-making. In situations where isolated fixes are no longer enough and you need to understand connections, relationships, and long-term impact.

What I often see when things don't work

  • Parts are optimized without regard for the whole.
  • Processes pile up, while accountability disappears.
  • Symptoms are treated instead of causes.
  • Decisions get postponed because “we still lack the data”.

How I approach it

  • I try to understand the real goal of the system, not just its current form.
  • I look for where friction forms—and why it's tolerated for so long.
  • I simplify decisions before anyone starts optimizing performance.
  • When needed, I decide even with incomplete information.

I work best when I can think in context and carry responsibility for the whole—at least for a period of time.

Autonomy, open communication, and clear context are not perks for me, but the baseline without which a system cannot function long term.

This way of working keeps repeating across roles and projects.

Profiles like Gallup , TEIQ or 16Personalities keep confirming it—how I think strategically, work independently, and decide even when the data isn't complete.

I take it as confirmation of practice, not a label.

Below are concrete projects and collaborations where this approach met reality.

I work best where it is necessary to connect the dots and find direction.

This is how I work. And these are places where it was needed.

Context

I separate the real problem from the symptom.

Decision-making

I help set decision-making before anyone starts “optimizing performance”.

System

I connect people, processes, and technology into one functional whole.

These are not theories. Below are concrete situations where this approach was needed.

iShowroom IT & 3D AR/VR studio — projects and operations as one

Situation: A fast-growing product, client pressure, limited capacity.

What mattered: Keep decision-making functional, align team, finances, and deadlines, and prevent the system from fragmenting into isolated tasks.

What changed: More stable operations, clearer accountability, less firefighting, and more work with the system as a whole.

Automotive projects (Škoda Electric, Hronovský, MUT Automotive)

Situation: Complex technical projects, unclear briefs, changes mid-stream, pressure on deadlines and production.

What mattered: Decide even with incomplete information and watch the impact of changes on production, not just spreadsheets.

What changed: Projects didn't collapse under their own complexity and made it to production without losing control.

Unipetrol Refinery and petrochemistry — parallel projects in operation

Situation: More than ten parallel projects in an environment with high safety and coordination demands.

What mattered: Reality on the ground, decision-making without complete data, aligning people, equipment, and suppliers.

What changed: Better control over parallel projects and clearer accountability in decision-making.

When working with me makes sense

I don't enter cooperation to “fill a role”.

I step in where the whole needs to stay functional—decision-making, context, and accountability.

Cooperation can take different forms. Sometimes it is a long-term involvement in a system, sometimes a short intervention in a situation that is collapsing under its own complexity. More important than the role name is always the context and the impact of decisions.

Situations where my involvement works best

  • when decisions are made under pressure and with incomplete information
  • when people, processes, and technology need to be aligned
  • when the system works “on paper”, but not in reality

When it usually does not

  • when you are only looking for fast execution without context
  • when responsibility is distributed but control is centralized
  • when there isn't room to say that something doesn't make sense

If this sounds like a situation you're dealing with, reach out.

I'm happy to see whether it makes sense to do something about it — and how.
