Fero Baník
Fero has a PhD in robotics, yet he decided to take over the family heating installation business. At the time, with only five employees and at a loss. Without knowing the agile approach or these methods, he intuitively rebuilt the mental setup of the company into a self-directed organization in successive steps. Today this company, with its representation of different roles and expertise, is completely horizontal, without any middle management.
Monika Šamonilová
Monika Šamonilová leads a team of nearly 50 agile coaches at Česká spořitelna. Together they ensure the adoption and development of agile ways of working in the largest Czech bank. She has gained her extensive professional experience in various business and management roles, and has also worked in the field of education and personal development. She studied Andragogy, is a professional coach, lecturer, and mentors in internal and external mentoring programs. Monika is a passionate traveller, who in her free time can often be found travelling with her family, whether on a motorbike, in a car, motorhome or with sports equipment – skis, bike or skates. Her active lifestyle reflects her dynamic approach to work and personal life.
Radek Majer
Radek has dedicated part of his life to building telecommunications and technology companies. He has applied his skills in service development and crisis management in many major companies. Thanks to an open and single family, he eventually came to understand concepts such as happiness at work, holacracy, management innovation, etc. Today, he is an investor, promoter of new directions in corporate governance, freedom at work, meaningful entrepreneurship and innovator of conservative approaches. Together with his wife, he is an entrepreneur in data centers, real estate, finance, consultants and guides in introducing freedom principles to businesses and families.
