Who is behind this

Hi, I'm Amela.

Amela Tiganj

I am a leadership and performance consultant in Sarajevo. For over ten years I have worked on global projects, across the region, Austria and international corporate environments. I built the L2L (Lead to Lead) labs to fix what feels a bit off between business strategy and the people who carry it out.

About me

Hi, I'm Amela.

Leadership and performance consultant, Sarajevo.

Amela Tiganj
10+ years  /  Global projects

I created the L2L (Lead to Lead) framework for leadership and team development. It comes from over a decade of international experience, delivering solutions across the region, in Austria and in global corporate environments.

I work directly with organizations to improve how teams perform and how leaders scale their capability.

My workshops are built for people who already know the theory and need something that works in their own team on Monday morning.
