Hi everyone,
I'm Alexandra.
I've always been fascinated by the relationship between people and organisations: how culture is shaped, how trust is built, and why some workplaces bring out the best in people while others slowly drain them.
My career started in recruitment, helping companies find and attract talent across different industries and technology environments. Over time, my curiosity expanded beyond hiring itself and into what happens after people join: how they grow, perform, collaborate, experience leadership, and make sense of their place within an organisation.
That curiosity gradually led me into broader People & Culture roles. Today, after 15+ years working across recruitment, employee experience, performance management, career development, engagement, people operations, and organisational development, I partner with leaders and teams to help create environments where both people and businesses can thrive.
What interests me most is understanding how organisations work beneath the surface. Not just processes, policies, or frameworks, but the human dynamics behind them: what creates trust, what enables growth, and how leaders shape the environments around them.
Outside work, I'm an avid reader, curious traveller, psychology enthusiast, and someone who is constantly exploring new ideas simply because they spark my interest. I'm also a proud cat mom 😻.
I'm joining this community to learn, exchange ideas, and connect with people who care about building better workplaces while navigating the realities that come with them.
Looking forward to connecting with you all.
