Andrea Darabos
Andrea is one of the early pioneers of StrongSuits, having learned StrongSuits under the mentorship of its founder and original creator, Dave Corbet.
As a software engineer for over a decade, Andrea noticed the widespread lack of leadership and communication skills in engineering organisations on various projects. It was when Andrea was exposed to structured leadership development programmes at Ericsson that she discovered how systemic organisational and leadership development can lead to effective teamwork and how those efforts can scale. StrongSuits fits perfectly in the portfolio of leadership skills development – and enables this via a useful, engaging set of games and interventions.
Andrea’s focus point now is organisational strategy development and strategy execution through effective change management. Andrea founded and leads Lean Advantage Ltd, a group of consultancy and training companies set across the UK and Switzerland.
Andrea has an MBA from INSEAD, is a certified Lean Six Sigma Black Belt and an IDEO trained Design Thinking Programme facilitator. She leads and consults in Enterprise Transformation and Change Programmes in global organisations.
