“Discovering the geographical poles, crossing the desert, crossing the ocean is a fascinating and dangerous path, which allowed us to I discovered the Pole method – the art of self-discovery and achieving goals. Don’t worry, this is not an academic lecture, I don’t want to persuade or lecture you on anything. I would just like to share my experience and invite you to work on yourself, which is no less fascinating than an expedition to the farthest ends of the Earth. I believe that the method and exercises described in the book by psychologist Joanna Heidtman will open the door and the first step in your journey into yourself. A new door means a new path and new opportunities, and every journey begins with the first step.”

The power of synergy and the art of building relationships are the two key pillars of creating the Olivia Business Centre community. One of our goals is also to show that Olivia is a place of development for many people and that it is always a situation of two-way exchange of ideas and experiences – participants of our meetings and invited experts.
Guest of the event “Azimuth for good luck. The Pole Method in Life and Business”, which took place in Olivia Sky Club, was recently Marek Kamiński; a charismatic leader, traveller, thinker, outstanding personality of Polish sport and business, who in July 2017 chose Olivia as the location of his foundation’s headquarters. In an interview conducted by Monika Bogdanowicz (Olivia Business Centre), Marek Kamiński shared his experience gained during numerous expeditions and travels that have led him to the farthest corners of the world. He told m.in. about the need and the possibility of consciously creating a feeling of happiness in our lives, both in the professional and personal sphere.
And they can be created m.in. through the consistent use of simple meditation techniques, an inner conversation with oneself and the so-called Thought notes – made every morning, just after waking up. He presented, on his own example, the ways of implementing new plans and goals. He brought those present in Olivia closer. his latest project ” Life plan ” and the “No Trace Expedition”. The latter is an innovative project promoting the idea of conscious travel, also into oneself, without leaving traces in the natural environment. Its implementation is planned for March-June 2018. Route – 20 thousand. kilometers – it will run through Kaliningrad, Belarus, Russia, Siberia, South Korea and Japan. The aim of the expedition is m.in. To show that an electric car can travel long and difficult distances, and at the same time have a positive impact on the world around us, leaving no traces of human presence in it. This idea is combined with the innovative “Leave Trail” approach, which is about leaving a mark, but not in nature, but in people’s minds.
During the event, elements of development programs implemented by the Marek Kamiński Foundation, which support various social and professional groups, including managers and executives of companies, were also presented. Among them was, of course, Kamiński’s original “Pole Method “. This one is focused on achieving goals, supporting development and preventing loss of motivation. A 10-step route leads m.in. to know oneself. It is based on dreams, because they are the key to determining one’s own Pole. The Pole method was described in the book “Discover that you carry the pole within you” and uses m.in. visualizations and physical exercises.
It is successfully used at the Camps of the Conquerors of the Poles organized by the Marek Kamiński Foundation. However, it can be applied to every level of life and include both personal and business goals. It becomes a multidimensional and fascinating journey that aims to give our lives a unique value. Soft skills, which can be acquired using this method, become useful in everyday life, at every stage.
