After 8️⃣ years with Bloomreach my time has come to say goodbye! 💛 Before writing this post, I wanted to thank so many individuals, but that would have been such a looong post 😀 It had been a crazy good ride, the best career experience so far and only because of the people around me 🙏 There are however 2 people that shaped my career (& life!) to a stage where I am right now and from the depths of my heart I want to thank them publicly (and I want to share one biggest lesson I learned from them): Peter Irikovsky, former CEO of exponea (acquired by bloomreach), who had this vision, crazy vision with people on the first place (always!) - he showed me, that there isn't a challenge big enough, that you can't accept 🚀 PS: Peter almost fired me at one point 😀 Ursula Kralova, Chief People officer Bloomreach, my manager since 2020, we've worked together during my lowest and highest points in my career. I have huge admiration for the level of commitment Ursula is bringing to daily work with deep focus on company's culture - which is defined not just by the good times, but also by how we navigate through the tough times together 💛 One quarter of my life I spent with Bloomreach... 🥹 I enjoyed it to the fullest! And now, a new challenge has to be accepted 💪 I'm going back to startup world... but on that sometimes later.
Ah no, sad to see you go, but wishing you good luck at the next adventure
So sad for us, but also such an exciting new chapter for you! 😊 I hope you see and feel proud of the impact you’ve had from all the reactions. An influential mentor for so many people, me included! Thank you for everything! We have a big celebration coming up soon where we can reflect on everything! 🥳
Jozko, you’ll be missed 🥺 but I’m excited to see where your next journey will lead! 💪 I do hope this change will bring you everything you wish for and more. Thank you for everything you taught me! ❤️😊
almost impossible to imagine! It's already some time since we "worked" to together, but incredible memories :) ...all the best in the next chapter. Curious about that one ;)
You're a legend, Jozeff! The way you think and work is extraordinary. I can't wait to see what's next for you.
Thanks for your support when I was at Bloomreach. 🙏🏽 Wishing you all the best on the next chapter of your journey. 👏🏽👋🏽
sad to see you go Jozko, wishing you all the best in your next adventure!
I cannot read this without it bringing a tear to my eye! You are a true leader and know that your legacy will live on through Bloomreach for many many years. Thank you for everything you have taught, inspired, and challenged me to do over the last 4 years!
You made a difference Jozko! Enjoy the new journey ;) I'm curious about your next steps, let's see soon!
Jozko, it is hard to put into words how much I’ve learned from you and how much you’ll be missed. You always knew how to turn a challenge into learning opportunity, and that’s something I’ll carry forward (not only) in my career. I wish you all the best in your next chapter. And I truly mean it when I say your next team is extremely lucky to have you. 💛
