Building Resilience for Entrepreneurs
Entrepreneurs constantly face challenges, and mental strength is key to handling them effectively. To support business owners in developing resilience, the Pomeranian Science and Technology Park Gdynia and the Marek Kaminski Foundation have launched the recurring coaching program “Power Center”, which offers practical tools and strategies to help entrepreneurs manage stress and stay focused.
Marek Kaminski, a Polish extreme traveler, was the first to reach both the North and South Poles unaided. His projects, such as LifePlan Academy, Power4Resilience, and Kaminski Academy, focus on building resilience and essential life skills. He believes that, like his polar expeditions, success in business requires strong mental endurance.
Strategy for Turbulent Times
One upcoming event, for example, will focus on planning and developing strategies in uncertain times. It will cover analyzing the changing environment, identifying risks and opportunities, and creating flexible strategies that allow companies to adapt quickly. This practical approach is inspired by Marek Kaminski’s experience as an explorer who overcame extreme conditions, and is now applied to entrepreneurship.
