Kate Sotsenko, Productivity for Well-Being & Leadership Coach
my mission
my mission
I invite people to master Good Busy: be busy with work they're proud of and have time for what (and who) they love after work. We all deserve that. You deserve that.
Hi, I'm Kate
10 years to become a tennis pro. 15 years in corporate. Four years ago, I founded TheGoodBusy.com.
Productivity for well-being and work-life balance are games of decisions. Not a tech game.
A very busy childhood: school, tennis, piano, singing, sewing club. All thanks to my dad’s timeboxing skills — my schedule in a yellow frame, right over my bed.
barcelona
Dreaming of becoming a world number 1 at the Sergio Bruguera tennis academy.
brussels
Working with a private coach, winning country tournaments, and, of course, learning French (and a bit of Flemish.)
columbus
Being an exchange student, winning city, district, and gracefully losing in Ohio state tennis tournament.
minsk
Making a tough decision — a tennis ball or university — and choosing to study and aim for a career in luxury industry.
brussels
Getting a bachelor’s and a master’s degree, and landing my first job at the coolest company ever, Levi’s.
rome
Joining the world of luxury with Ferragamo, and searching for the best pizza (of course).
shanghai
Landing a dream job at Gucci, overworking, and burning out (with terrifying episodes of vision loss).
bangkok
Working for Soneva Resorts and learning slow life: you can do great things without riding a high speed train every day.
zurich
Joining IWC Schaffhausen in the land of torture walks (i.e. hikes), and occasionally overworking (leading to terrifying ocular migraines).
singapore
Mastering Good Busy: living my version of work-life balance while replacing a 13-month maternity leave, and still exceeding performance targets by 84%.
cyprus
Inspiring corporate professionals to master Good Busy and live their version of work-life balance. Since founding TheGoodBusy.com, over 50,000 leaders trust my advice on LinkedIn. I’ve worked with leaders from Roche, Bosch, Vodafone, Cartier, and more.
