Education

Univerza v Ljubljani
2007 - 2009Faculty of Social Sciences Marketing communications GPA 8,5After finishing 2 years of my master of science studies @ FDV Marketing Communications I dropped out as the financial crisis took my job away from me and I decided to go at it on my own. I'm proud to belong in the drop out club with so many other brilliant other like Albert Einstein, Walt Disney, Richard Branson, Steve Jobs, and last but not least Princess Diana 👑

Univerza v Ljubljani
1997 - 2004Bachelor of Science - BS Faculty of Natural Sciences / Fashion and Textile Design GPA 9,5I graduated in Visual communications with a diploma focusing on Semantics and Semiotics of Branding in the Fashion Industry of Slovenia. This was an extensive research into what makes a brand "the brand" and I could say it was the first book I ever wrote as it is 250 pages long which is 200 pages over the norm for the work. Well, what can I say ... when I get into it - I get INTO it! 💪
Experience

Radio Hit
Jan 1997 - Dec 2007Speaker / Presenter / Content CreatorI created, wrote and hosted a late night live radio show on film, fashion & pop culture. Looking back I was such a 🐛I was good buy boy did I NOT believe in myself. Today I'm proud to be able to connect the dots and draw from this experience where I had stage fright, insecurities, doubts, self-sabotage, impostor syndrome, self-esteem issues. I wish I'd known then what I know now. Still - my job is not not dwell on the past but to help shape YOUR future using all my tools, all the experience I have to help others become 🦋as I believe if you're a coach, you better had found a way to help yourself first! Onwards and upwards! Show less

Pristop
Nov 2006 - Nov 2007Creative Writer / Assistant Event ManagerMy first job experience working in a pool of extremely talented people focused on work, work and then some more work. I fit right in 🎈as I looooooove my work too YEY! I was a creative writer, script writer, speech writer and assistant event manager for corporate events and product launches. I had to design an event, manage it, write write write write everything - from invitations to scripts to the speech their CEO gave to motivate his/hers employees. Seriously? You don't know what to say or how to say it? NO PROBLEM - that's what i'm here for! I loooove helping people shape their message to show how much they support their team! 📣 Show less

IMAGO
Nov 2007 - Nov 2008Account manager / PR and adveritisingImago is a family run agency - that means an account manager is accountable for anything and everything! I surely had my hands full at this agency and we had a lot of fun with the team too! This is where I got my first experience in client acquisition and pitching. My greatest accomplishment at this agency was landing a 30K client and a year long contract with one of the largest shoe manufacturer in Slovenija. This was the first client I landed after securely fucking up a pitch for another company LOL. Jokes aside, it's not all roses and bunnies hoping around in our lives. My past has a couple grandiose fu** ups in it as sometimes the best learning is by doing. So next time you fail at something 👏 Show less

Merkur
Nov 2008 - Nov 2009Head of Marketing CommunicationsAs head of marketing communication I was leading a small in-company team of 12 people / from accounts, digital, design & copy. We functioned like an agency taking on big and small projects, testing new ideas while running what worked to boost sales. Merkur is a retailer offering a gazillion products to customers - and we had to know the WHO WHY & WHEN for all of them. I'm proud of the fact that under my leadership two individuals who's skills and talents were previously unnoticed got promoted and more empowering work was offered to them. I love helping people grow ❤️I worked with this company for a year prior to giving birth to my first child and amidst the financial crisis of 2008. My greatest accomplishment is raising visibility using ATL and "from the shelf" strategies while enduring a 35% budget cut from the get go!!! Thinking on my feet much!- ATL advertising campaigns- Privat Store Label marketing communications using a "from the shelf" branding strategy.- all the sales promotion materials to support the sales team while- supervising all EXYU markets and their marketing communications budgets and campaigns- and managing the overall marketing budget with a 35% dent in it. I ❤️ this job! Show less

Danfoss
Jan 2014 - Mar 2015Independent Consultant / Content Creator / FUTURE OF WORKAs a freelance consultant I worked with companies Krka, Helios and Danfoss Trata along many others helping them create content that spoke to their stakeholders in a way that strenghten their brand positioning. I am especially proud of the Danfoss Trata project FUTURE OF WORK which won the 2015 BEEP AWARD @HR konference for employee engagement. My role in this project was leading the design team as well as leading the content creation in vision with the content strategy. We4 worked closely with Danfoss internal marketing department Mateja Panjan and Bojana Zupanič. Our aim was to use the event of their 20th anniversary of aquisition to Danfoss global to position this Slovene based company Trata is an engineering leader of tomorrow with an immense talent pool of engineers, innovators & visionary management team. The project included almost 1/3 of the company employees who all contributed in some way to the success of this project. It was a big success both in raising engagement as well as hitting our positioning target! My special contribution to this project amongst many was a very interesting bilingual script for the main gala event in Cankarjev Hall. A full auditorium of 500 were able to follow this event in both slovene and english language while nothing was translated but the script flowed - two speakers on stage at the same time twisting words so you could either listen no one, the other or both and get the point! Interesting 😅 Show less

Shaping Future Voices by Meta Groselj
Nov 2015 - nowI loooooooove time management as this is a lifesaving superpower! Planning and organising my days, weeks, years to best suite my priorities and goals I've set out to achieve was how I got to turn my inner 🐛into a professional 🦋I am today. When I started coaching I decided productivity was the way to go and I primarily focused on workshops and coaching individuals on how to prevent burnout, work smarter and achieve the work-life balance they've always wanted. I worked at it for 3 years resulting in a BOOK entitled FOCUS. In Slovene language only 😀Writing a book was on my bucket list so ✔️FOCUS is an upgrade from time management into managing your concentration or better jet attention. As today our economic world is a world of so called "attention economy" and it is your focus you need to safeguard if you want to use your 24 hours productively and to your advantage.
