stosh machek
Stosh Machek has worked at both ends of the spectrum for social change: as a therapeutic behaviorist who inspires his client’s personal creativity, and as a security operative who monitors situational risks and manages for social results. Stosh has worked with and supported non-profit programs, online communities, local businesses, and global entertainment companies.
As a musician, poet, and a life-long student of the Martial Arts, Stosh brings an artist’s sensitivities—and a warrior’s situational awareness—to help teams create a positive social impact. While guiding individuals and teams, Stosh realized that more often than not, people tended to focus inward on their themselves, instead of outward on others.
He recognized this as ‘an issue of perspective.’ And he considered it a root issue that prevents innovative individuals and teams from introducing something new: they are trapped by their culture and language, by their framing of situations, and by their personal measures of success. Stosh implements a different approach: see from many points of views, learn from social cues, strive for a positive impact for all people involved. For more than 20 years, Stosh has refined for himself what it means to take a social perspective to help people succeed.
Today, Stosh is a mentor and coach to innovative professionals, leaders, and teams. He also creates environments—and programs—to transform the personal and professional lives of individuals and companies. Stosh consults to social enterprises, community-makers, sustainable businesses, and any organization facing multi-cultural challenges or crisis situations.
