For Marina, a Beautiful Work Life is about building and cultivating a “listening” and inclusive workplace that embraces human imperfection and goes beyond seeking productivity.
I work in the finance and technology space, and have held a well rounded series of positions across various functions at various sizes and stages of companies.

I am a Gallup Certified Strengths Coach and practice the philosophy of focusing on what people do really well and to do more of it. I help individuals identify their unique talents, discover how to use their talents to reach their desired objectives, and then lead the whole team to discover ways to draw on each other’s strengths. Beautiful Work Lives takes a holistic approach of marrying the personal and professional world. The "ingredients" act as barometers to assess what is working successfully or might be lacking in an organization. I am thrilled to be part of this global movement to stir up a paradigm shift for traditional business models.
