My organisation

Founded in 2023 by Anita Zielina, the Lab offers tailored leadership development, management training, business consulting and strategic support for leadership teams.
Better Leaders Lab customers are companies, foundations and associations from the media, communications, non-profit and technology sectors in the USA and Europe.
The Better Leaders Lab Academy, as part of the Lab, offers executive education courses that empower leaders to make better strategic decisions and sustainably transform their organisations. The courses are designed as small group learning experiences that bring together digital and media leaders to confidentially discuss business transformation, management or leadership issues.
