Gosia Syta has been figuring out the unspoken rules of professional life since she moved to the UK from Poland. Now she helps others do the same, faster.

As the founder of Walk Your Talk, she works with global organisations including Aviva, UBS, Dentons, BP, and The Guardian. Her leadership communication training, rooted in behavioural science, adult learning principles, and over a decade of corporate experience, helps technically brilliant professionals speak up, step up, and move into more senior roles.

What drives the work: every HR priority, from talent retention to leadership pipeline to engagement, depends on how well people communicate. Communication isn't a soft skill. It's business infrastructure.

Increasingly, that work includes bringing AI into communication development: strengthening how professionals influence in high-stakes moments, improving communication quality at scale, and designing learning programmes that stick.
