Her skills and knowledge enable her to achieve high effectiveness
Ewa Adamczyk has been with NAJ International since 1994 and has led the firm as Managing Partner and CEO since 2005. She works with boards of Polish and international companies on C-level, Management Board and Supervisory Board appointments.
In 2014, she led NAJ International’s accession to the International Executive Search Federation (IESF). She represents the firm internationally and coordinates cross-border searches with IESF partners in different markets. She also supports family-owned businesses in succession projects and investment funds in key appointments within portfolio companies.
Her work starts with understanding the client’s business situation, the risks attached to the role and the outcomes expected from the new leader. This keeps the search grounded in the organisation’s real needs rather than in the job description alone.
International projects make one thing very clear: what works in one market cannot simply be copied into another. Sometimes the most useful thing a consultant can say is – Poland works differently.

IESF Annual Global Meeting 2026 in Vietnam Global Reach, Local Knowledge and the Future of Executive Search
The IESF Annual Global Meeting 2026 in Ho Chi Minh City reinforced something I strongly believe: as artificial intelligence transforms our profession, the expertise of experienced executive search firms becomes even more valuable. Technology will continue to change how we identify talent. But businesses still need exceptional leaders who can make a meaningful difference, create competitive advantage and shape their organisations' future.
How was technology changed communication in recruitment?
Technology has made communication in recruitment faster, but there is still a person on the other side of every message who wants to know why we are contacting them and whether they can trust us.
Global mindset in business. How to lead across markets
A global mindset in business helps leaders decide what should remain a common company standard and what must adapt to the local market. Today, that judgement matters not only across cultures, but also across different regulatory environments, labour markets, operating models and levels of AI adoption.

Why an executive search guarantee matters in senior hiring
An executive search guarantee protects a company when a senior hire does not meet expectations within an agreed period. It is not only a contractual clause, but also a signal that the recruitment agency takes responsibility for the quality of its process.
