Born in Russia, I studied economics and human resource development and worked designing, facilitating and managing learning programs in educational and non-profit sectors. Since 2001 I work as researcher at Novay, studying social media, changing workplace, knowledge and learning. In my work I bring together my experiences of facilitating learning and managing change, my interest in technologies and my passion for understanding how people work.

What I do best: asking questions and recognising patterns, initiating and facilitating change, workshop/learning facilitation, boundary spanning, translating from research to practice and back.

Contexts: knowledge management, human resources development, technologies for collaboration, learning and knowledge sharing (including those under "social software" umbrella), technology adoption and change management.
