Joanna earned her PhD in Medical Sciences and began her career in academia. She experienced firsthand how unclear expectations, poor communication, and lack of support quietly erode performance — even in rooms full of talented, committed people.
When she moved into business environments, she saw the same pattern: people weren't failing because they lacked ability. They were failing because the systems around them made it harder to collaborate, communicate, and lead well.
That's what led her to build T Shaped.
Her work bridges two worlds: the rigor and clarity of science, and the emotional intelligence that people need to thrive. The mission has stayed the same from the start — help mission-driven teams fix the structural problems that stop good people from doing great work.
