Experience in change and decision work

As an Intergraf auditor for ISO 14298 and INTERGRAF 15374 and initiator and trainer of the Intergraf Academy, I work with security professionals worldwide. I have led ICR projects on information security and the integration of AI and agentic AI. My research at TU Ostrava examines the effectiveness of crisis management approaches.
