Jana Bulkin
TechNavigatorin & Transformation Guide
My Mission & Passion
I am Jana Bulkin – TechNavigator and Transformation Guide. My mission: to support companies and executives in using technology as a business enabler and shaping transformation in a holistic, sustainable, and value-based way. For me, sustainable transformation means balancing values, impact, and growth – with an entrepreneurial attitude, clear responsibility, and the courage to create something new.
I don’t just live this attitude in my professional life: as a passionate skier, cyclist, sailor, and traveler, I love movement – preferably in a team. A special experience: my three-week trek across the Alps from Munich to Venice. Clear vision, flexible path. Weather changes, detours, daily decisions – just like any real transformation. You need clarity, a good foundation, and the willingness to embrace change. Transformation is not a destination, but a journey – with attitude, direction, and adaptability.
