Anu-Mall Naarits
Visionest Institute, CEO

I’ve always been focused on the impact of what we do. As a corporate marketing director, it was crucial to see how our actions influenced the bottom line. When I founded Visionest Institute, impact quickly became our core mantra. We are passionate about measuring the impact of our management training programs and adapting based on what we learn. We’re constantly seeking ways to maximize that impact. A great example is the Ukraine Rebuilding Task Force project, where our participants developed meaningful projects to help rebuild different regions. By working in teams, they were able to dream bigger and bolder about the changes and impact they wanted to create. They formed strong connections and are excited to put their ideas into action now that the program has ended. My presentation today marks a year since the program began. Let’s dive in and explore how that impact has come to life!
