My name is Hrvoje Bulat, and I am here to help you develop and motivate your employees.
Besides pay, employees most often quit due to a lack of care from superiors and development opportunities
(McKinsey & Company, 2022).
Employee Engagement
Do you know how to motivate employees in today's world?
The OAK Leadership Model holistically covers all key aspects of leadership: from activating and further developing your leadership mindset, through recognizing and optimally addressing your employees’ needs to support their growth and motivation, all the way to creating a highly cohesive and successful team. The model was developed based on team leadership experience at the most successful company in its industry in Croatia and refined through application by managers in a successful start-up.
Organizational changes succeed in only 30% of cases
(McKinsey & Company, 2015).
Organizational Change Success
Do you want to increase the chances of success for your Organizational Change?
Contact me. I will connect you with my partners at Maven7, a company with over ten years of experience in accelerating organizational changes worldwide, including a successful project in Croatia with a company of 700 employees. Using the practical scientific method of Organizational Network Analysis (ONA), my partners will identify individuals in your company who, through their personal informal influence, will accelerate the acceptance of changes throughout the organization.
Companies today increasingly encourage managers to develop themselves and their employees through coaching
(Harvard Business Review, 2019).
Advisory, Coaching & Mentoring
What does every professional athlete need?
A coach. In my career, I have worked with nearly 200 domestic and international talents. Some of them have advanced very far, even reaching positions as board members and presidents of companies in the country and abroad. I also work as a coach according to the highest global (ICF) standards, adapting my approach to each client based on their needs. So, if you need support for your own development or the development of your talents, contact me, and let's explore together how I can best help you.
What do Clients say?
"Hrvoje has excellently translated his managerial experience into a leadership model based on scientific insights into motivation. By using this model, the leader simultaneously cares for the needs of employees and the achievement of business goals. A particular advantage of the model is the Motivational Matrix, which helps the leader identify employees' needs and motivate them."

Uvelike mi je pomogao razumjeti u kojem smjeru želim ići i poticao me da ne odustajem od svojih želja. Kao rezultat njegovog znanja, iskustva i osobnih vrijednosti, u narednim godinama razvijala sam se na način na koji sam to htjela.“

About me
I'm a psychologist with 20 years of experience in HR and business, mostly gained at one of the leading companies in Croatia. At the same company, I developed the OAK Leadership Model, based on successfully leading a team that served over 1,000 employees for more than 3 years in direct contact with customers.
I have been educated in Croatia and abroad in the fields of HR Development and Leadership. I wrote about it for Netokracija, the leading regional media outlet dedicated to the digital industry, focusing on employee motivation and retention. Nowadays, I contribute to the business magazine Lider, one of the most influential magazines in Croatia. I’m a member of the Harvard Business Review Advisory Council.
I have broad interests, so for several years I have been a guest lecturer at the Zagreb School of Economics and Management and the ZSEM Business Academy on the topics of Neuroeconomics and Organizational Network Analysis (ONA).
I founded B WISE at the end of 2022, and through it I continue the best practice of the company IDEALNA SURADNJA that I founded and led until lockdown 2020. After the lockdown, I sold the company to an Asian entrepreneur who needed a stable base to expand his business in Europe.
Enriched with the experiences gained in IDEALNA SURADNJA, I embarked on a new entrepreneurial venture, and to the portfolio of services I added leadership education OAK Leadership Model, as my flagship service.
Also, as a partner of Maven7, one of the most respected ONA companies in the world, I offer you ONA to accelerate your company’s Organizational Change. Through our partnership a popular foreign company in Croatia has already successfully utilized our partner's tool, OrgMapper, accelerating as many as two of their Organizational Changes.
After I hear more about your needs, I can offer you a transformative option for you and your company in the form of a tailored-made program, combining leadership training with advisory, coaching and mentoring in the most effective way for you.
