Elena Mertel Email & Phone Number

Hi there,I am a curious and creative person, keen on understanding what drives different people and how I can support them in achieving their ambitions. Having experienced the invaluable support of others myself, I am passionate about offering the same to those around me. Throughout my life, my decisions have been largely influenced by a strong sense of social justice, being aware of my privilege and the commitment to contributing to the creation of equal opportunities for all. Feeling at home at the intersection of social innovation and international collaboration, nothing energizes me more than finding myself in a room full of change makers brainstorming ways to overcome societal challenges.With my experience in program management of multi-country projects and collaborating with diverse stakeholders, including governmental and private sector partners, I thrive in dynamic and complex international environments.Being also a huge fan of design thinking, human-centered design approaches and agile working methods, I bring a unique blend of strategic insight and workshop facilitation experience. My track record includes organizing and facilitating accelerator and incubator programs for young change makers both online and offline, as well as leading event organization, workshops and webinars.

Listed skills include Innovationsmanagement, Eventmanagement, Eventplanung, Internationale Beziehungen, and 2 others.
