Costul ascuns al echipei • antreprenorii printre borcane cu Mălina Iordache-Chirea SAGE Leadership

Entrepreneurs are often so focused on KPIs, sales, administration, that they forget (most of the time) about their own team. Many already react when employee behaviors endanger the future of the business. We recognize, we are extremely happy to have met Mălină and we can't wait to improve the well-being of the entrepreneurs' organizations that we guide to profit. Who is our guest? Mălina Iordache-Chirea is a clinical psychologist and personal development counselor, with over 15 years of experience working with people, both in individual and organizational contexts. Her professional path is built at the intersection of applied psychology, emotional education and organizational development, with a constant interest in the dynamics of relationships and the impact they have on individuals and groups. In 2012, she co-founded the Institute for Happiness, one of the first initiatives in Romania to bring the conversation about adult well-being and the importance of emotional education as a foundation for a more balanced society to the public space. Within the institute, she created and delivered personal development programs, camps, community initiatives and awareness campaigns, working with diverse communities in Romania on topics such as individual responsibility and the common good. Through her direct work and through TV, radio and social media campaigns, she reached over 15,000 people. Her interest in a solid theoretical foundation led her to the Faculty of Psychology, completing an initial training as an English and Spanish teacher. Since 2019, she has been a clinical psychologist, and since 2020 she has been certified in the Solution Focus methodology, oriented towards concrete and applicable solutions. Since 2020, Mălina has been working extensively in the organizational environment through SAGE Leadership, the company she founded, where she supports personal development, leadership and team development programs. Her work focuses on understanding how groups are formed, on the mutual influence between the individual and the collective, and on how a single person can generate change in an entire system. In parallel with the work in organizations, the work in the office remains focused on the individual: on their relational patterns, personal history and real development goals. The therapeutic process is built at an authentic pace, adapted to each client, using methodologies such as positive psychology, solution-focused approach and nonviolent communication. The methodology that she most faithfully represents is transactional analysis, which she considers a clear and honest tool for understanding individual responsibility in relationships and within collectives. Since 2022, she has been in the process of certification in Transactional Analysis, a certification that she is completing this year, becoming CTA-O (Certified Transactional Analyst – Organizational), the second person in Romania to reach this level of certification. In recent years, she has delivered offline programs in Romania, Italy, France and India. She is also the creator of the SAGE board game, an experiential tool for awareness of relational dynamics in teams, which will soon be available in Romania and Italy.
