Mariola Kajkowska

Mariola Kajkowska is the Founder of First Friend in Denmark a company with the purpose to support companies in Denmark in the process of retaining their international employees. Denmark is known for its work-life balance and hygge but at the same time, it is challenging for the internationals who live there to settle well and get a feeling of belonging.

What do I do? I provide training for the companies and their international employees that bridge the gap to successful retention. I have developed a 12-month program called "4 Keys to Successful Retention" targeted at international employees and their accompanying partners.

I support companies that work with attracting, recruiting, onboarding, and retaining international talents.

Professional Certifications:
John Maxwell Team Certified Speaker, Trainer, and Coach
DISC Behavioral Analysis Trainer (JMT)
Strategic Intervention Coach
Garuda Competence Profile

I speak, teach, and train in English, Danish, and Polish. 

My passion: After relocating to Denmark in 2003, I followed my passion for dancing, especially salsa and Latin styles that have shaped my life and career in Denmark.

Being first salsa teacher, then transitioning to the Fitness Industry with Zumba, Strong Nation, and Salsation Fitness I have developed my instructor-teacher-performer skills inspiring, encouraging, and equipping my participants to grow their skills and change their lives.

Who I work with: Companies, individuals, and private and public organizations.

Virtual speaking: Since the covid-19 lockdown I had a full transition into the online universe with webinars, training, Facebook LIVE presentations, but also as a facilitator for events.

Online dance fitness classes are also on the list :)
