With more than 20 years of experience in the industry, Krystyna has made it her mission to find ways to help the UK workforce become happier, more collaborative, and more productive than ever. By relying on her deep understanding of psychology, NLP, and human behaviour, Krystyna is paving the way towards a stronger HR community for all.
Like many who have come before me, my life has by no means been easy! Growing up in a single-parent family, it was pretty tough at times and I grew up learning the value of honesty, integrity, working hard, continually learning and developing, and striving for success. I didn't have many people to help me along the way so it was a case of 'if you want something, work hard and go and get it!'
I started in the world of work at 13 years old when I got a local job delivering papers. From that time on, I have always worked hard and it was that strong work ethic, resilience and sheer will in many cases, that propelled me to climb the corporate career ladder. I started in HR in my early 20's while being an Hotel Manager and worked my way up, becoming the only female HR Director in the UK for a large global organisation with some 40,000 staff worldwide.
My time as a HRD was rewarding, yet challenging. However, after spending several years working exhausting hours, feeling stressed, isolated, with constant fire-fighting, along with trying to navigate the often complex world of HR, I became totally burnt out and decided to reassess my working life and priorities!
At that point, I made the decision to do things my own way, and launched my own HR and Coaching Consultancy. A year or so later, the idea for MyPeopleClub was born – a platform and community that will help HR professionals access the support and resources that I didn't have access to, while I was developing in the world of HR. MyPeopleClub is designed to save you time, money, effort and stress by providing everything you need for your day to day role.
I really understand the value and importance of a strong, tight knit community and it's my mission to create the most vibrant and engaged HR community in the UK!
"When I first started out in HR, I didn't have a HR Manager or Director above me. I had to find things out for myself, research the best way to do things and I had no one to bounce ideas and questions off – there was a lot of 'winging' it to start with! There were some big websites that you could use for reference, but there was no one place you could get everything you needed – even now when looking for things, there's still no one place people can turn to, which is what gave me the idea for MyPeopleClub".

Giving Back:
As HR professionals, community is an integral part of what we do every single day – whether it be helping businesses create better, more people-centric environments, or strengthening the connections between the people who work in them. However, we don't just care about professional communities – we care about all communities, including the ones we live and move in every single day.
That's why giving back to our community is one of our biggest goals. We want to do our part to help those who need us, and we're doing it by using our platform as a way to raise funds for worthwhile causes. (Check out our charity page for more info).
MPC Values:
Service is one of our biggest values. We want to serve our MPC members, provide content and tools that you want, and support you in the best ways possible.
Integrity is at the very heart of everything we do here at MyPeopleClub and is the cornerstone on which our business is built.
Professionalism – We work in a professional industry – The way we are and the content we produce is always professional. However, we also do have fun where appropriate!
Quality – All our documentation, tools, Masterclasses and other resources are produced to an extremely high quality. The platform will continue to expand and grow along with our HR community, and every care is taken to ensure we are giving you the very best we can.

However, it's not just all about us!
