TESTIMONIALS
PwC
“The Art of Seeing workshop was a truly immersive experience that exceeded my expectations. Both Alina and Shane presented the right mix of theory, practical demonstration and anecdotes through a photographer's lens that was not only highly relevant but also extremely translatable to an audience of professional consultants.
I received a lot of positive feedback about the session particularly around the refreshingly different perspective it provided to those who attended and the energy and enthusiasm of the presenters.
Thanks Alina and Shane for such an engaging, interactive and thought provoking experience.“

It’s about being creative, seeing the world through a different lens, spotting the uniqueness in our everyday worlds, and finding ways forward in the face of uncertainty.

I am delighted to recommend Alina as visionary and creative leader whose artsy management innovation talk was nothing short of transformative. Her presentation was a vibrant blend of creative energy and practical insight, seamlessly weaving together personal stories, innovative management concepts, and a dynamic display of incredibly creative photography.
From the outset, Alina captivated the audience with her genuine passion and authenticity. Each photo she shared offered a glimpse into her personal journey, adding a relatable and human touch to her message. These visual narratives, combined with her candid storytelling, not only illustrated the challenges and triumphs she experienced along her professional path but also underscored her belief in the power of personal connection as a catalyst for innovation.
Her talk was a masterclass in artsy management innovation. Alina artfully demonstrated that effective modern leadership transcends traditional methods—it requires creativity, empathy, and a willingness to share one’s authentic self. She introduced innovative strategies for managing teams and projects that are as aesthetically engaging as they are effective. Her approach reminds us that the best ideas often come from a place of personal insight and experience, encouraging others to embrace their individuality in the pursuit of professional excellence.
What truly set Alina apart was her ability to inspire. By integrating visual storytelling with practical management advice, she created an immersive experience that motivated every attendee to rethink their approach to leadership. Her energy was contagious, and her insights resonated long after the session ended, sparking meaningful discussions about creativity, innovation, and the future of management.
In summary, Alina is a unique talent who combines artistic vision with practical management expertise. Any organization fortunate enough to engage her will undoubtedly benefit from her unique perspective and innovative spirit.

In ‘The Art of Seeing’, Alina paints a world that is unseen.
She is an engaging storyteller, whose sessions draw on global expertise and unique experiences, filled with empathy, humour and passion.
Alina takes us on a journey behind the scenes of the camera into the pulse of what it takes to live with a creative mindset, tapping into the subtle voice of intuition.
During this experience you will hone your creative intelligence by experiencing paradoxical tensions of risk and trust, reaction versus response. Walking this tightrope is quintessential to the pulse of innovation.
You will realise the importance of creativity and lateral thinking to your profession, walk out charged with creative energy and methods for seeing your world anew.

“Nothing refreshes the mind better than a sojourn into creative seeing and thinking led by Alina. Her Art of Seeing workshop made space for my students to step away from their project work and (re)discover their visual storytelling potential.
Alina’s special talent, blending historical insights, autobiography, and her trademark humour, stretched us intellectually and activated our senses.
Each of us came away with tangible proof that everyone can be creative. And the workshop was underpinned by Alina’s fundamental understanding that innovation always exists downstream of being able to sense our world deeply, and in new ways. A highly recommended experience!”

“Alina presented The Art of Seeing at New Chambers to an audience of barristers, solicitors and litigation funders. As a group of professionals normally accustomed to focussing on depth and detail, Alina’s talk sparked everyone’s imagination and pivoted their point of view in the most unexpected of ways. She drew attention to the beauty and complexity that can be found in the surface layer.
Alina’s talk was inspiring and a lot of fun. What was meant to be an hour keynote, evolved into an interactive session where every attendee was engaged.”
