Remote Culture Consultant · Former HR Director

I’m Natalya -- originally from Kyiv, now based in NYC. I’ve spent 15+ years building and managing distributed teams across Europe. I write about culture, communication, and leadership in remote-first organizations. I believe remote work is about trust, not tools.
