Mirko Sasten

Professional background

I spent roughly 15 years in HR and organizational development in international companies, including several years in leadership roles. For the past 15 years, I have worked independently as a trainer, coach, and consultant.

This dual perspective—from working inside organizations and supporting them externally—shapes my approach: examine situations carefully, bring different perspectives together, and develop specific next steps.

My path

Two perspectives that now belong together.

I have worked both inside organizations and alongside them as an external trainer, coach, and consultant. My approach comes from holding both perspectives at once.
