Hi! I'm Michal

 

I come from a humble Slovakian family that has supported my ambitious goals despite financial limitations. Having no choice but to work hard for my dreams has taught me the tremendous value of perseverance, discipline and never-give-up attitude. In 2006, I undertook a challenge that has forever changed my life. I faced many roadblocks along my journey, but my strong belief that the ‘dots’ would somehow connect down the road gave me the confidence to follow my heart and never look back – and they did. I found what I truly love – sales and internationality. 

My Journey

From early childhood, I've been highly determined and passionate about writing my own success story and fulfilling my potential as an individual, a student, and a future business leader. My insatiable appetite to challenge myself and foster learning, adapting, growing, and developing drives me to always perform at my best and go beyond what I thought were my limits.

I was born in a small Slovakian

village called Dlhé Pole.

At the age of 16, I left Slovakia and my family behind with a goal to follow my dream.

I graduated with the highest academic standing in my class and received numerous recognitions.

I began my undergraduate education in International Business at Carleton University.

I was given the opportunity to study for 1 year at Universidad Adolfo Ibáñez in Chile.

I received my degree with High Distinction in Bachelor of International Business with Concentration in International Marketing and Minor in Spanish.

I began my full-time professional career in Enterprise Business Unit at Rogers Communications while working towards my long-term goal of being accepted to ESADE Business School to pursue my graduate education.

I began my graduate education in International Management at ESADE Business School in Barcelona, Spain.

I received ESADE Masters Degree in International Management.

I feel very fortunate to have found Toptal because it has exposed me to fully-remote environment long time before it was the norm.

I was approached with a unique opportunity to build an entire global outbound GTM strategy

from scratch.

Recognizing that AI is revolutionizing the business world,

I decided to deepen my understanding of it through

MIT's Executive Program.

I moved to Mexico with my wife to start a new life together.
