About
Hi! I'm Alex Kotsos!
I've worked in the field of HR and Learning and Development for over 2 decades.
My passion at work has always been the people. I want to see people enjoy what they do, have opportunities to grow and thrive, and work in cultures and environments that are human and positive and inclusive.
​
My relationships with my teams, my peers, my colleagues, and my clients have always been hugely important to me. I have developed long lasting friendships with many of the managers and leaders I have worked with over the years and look forward to building many more in the years to come.
​
Over the last 25 years I have worked directly for small firms (60 people) as well as large multinationals (20,000+ staff).
​
I've worked across a number of industries; tech, pharma, telcos, animation, and publicly funded state organisations.
​
I've supported teams and organisations across Europe, North America and Asia. I've worked as an employee, a contractor and a freelance consultant enabling me to understand both sides of the employer/employee dynamic.
​
Aside from my background and experience, the most important thing you need to know about me is that I love helping people discover their strengths and achieve more in their lives.
​
I've been working with a tool called Strengthscope since 2010. It's a profiler that helps people identify what motivates them and gives them energy. It's also a tool that has had, and continues to have, one of the most significant impacts on my own career. If ever I'm feeling stuck on a project I actively think about my strengths and how I can use these to overcome any challenges.
​
Supporting individuals and teams to identify and make the most of their strengths is my passion. All the work I do has a foundation in strengths and it has enabled me to really make a positive difference in people's lives at work.
​
I know that people performing at their best is the difference between a good organisation and a great one. I welcome every opportunity to support individuals, teams and organisations to grow and develop and create positive lasting behavioural change.
