Mihaela Draghici

Mihaela Draghici

Mihaela is a product leader with 15 years experience in building B2C and B2B global products and leading product teams in various industries, from education, e-commerce, to affiliate marketing and automotive.

She's led and scaled cross-functional teams, launched new products, and worked closely with business, design, engineering, and leadership teams in complex environments, while shifting away from a project mindset and towards a user-centric and outcome-oriented approach.

Mihaela believes that putting people first, both end-users and teams, is the key to creating great products.

Throughout her experience, she identified that most product teams don’t fail because of strategy, or lack of skill. They fail because they are not truly aligned in how they understand the work.

She now helps product leaders and cross-functional teams uncover hidden misalignment, clarify how they communicate, and build and speak the shared language needed to make good decisions and deliver outcomes that matter, faster.

Topics include:
- cross-functional collaboration
- outcome-driven product development
- inclusive leadership
- language & alignment in cross-functional teams

After my sessions, audiences typically:
- recognise how language quietly shapes collaboration and decision-making
- see why well-intentioned teams drift out of alignment over time
- gain practical ways to surface hidden assumptions in their own teams
- rethink “alignment” as an ongoing leadership responsibility, not a one-off event

Most importantly, leaders leave with a sharper lens for spotting problems before they turn into delivery failures or team friction.

My talks are grounded in real team dynamics, not idealised models, and they challenge people to look honestly at how they work together.

Thomas Antonakis

Thomas Antonakis

I’m Thomas Antonakis, and I come from Crete, the most beautiful island in Greece, and among the most beautiful in the world.

I have studied Statistics in Athens for B.Sc. and Master, before starting working in the Data Analysis industry. My first actual experience was a controlling (finance) department in a multinational wholesale company before jumping directly into BI and start/scale-ups. ClickDelivery.gr and efood (members of Delivery Hero) were the next destinations where I spent 6 years in the Greek BI team, 4 of them managing it.

I started working in ORFIUM in March 2021 where I was introduced to the modern data stack and the role of the Analytics Engineer. I became so passionate about the philosophy, the technology and the differentiation of the role from hard-core data analysis, so I got excited and started be following the IC Track in ORFIUM having been promoted to Staff and then Principal BI Engineer.

In July 2025, I assumed the role of Principal Analytics Engineer at Kaizen Gaming where I have the privilege of mentoring and technically leading a team of around 50 Analytics Engineers, empowering them with the community best practices.

I am 40 years old happily married to my lovely wife Melina, and a father of two amazing kids Vassilis and Aurora.

I am also a co-organizer of the Athens dbt meetup (https://www.meetup.com/athens-dbt-meetup/) so feel free to contact me in case you are interested in presenting.

Mirko Peters

Mirko Peters

Ich bin Mirko Peters und ich sehe Microsoft 365 nicht als Sammlung von Tools, sondern als Spiegel einer Organisation. Mich interessiert nicht primär die Technik, sondern wie Unternehmen denken, entscheiden und Verantwortung übernehmen. Denn digitale Plattformen zeigen sehr schnell, wo Strukturen klar sind – und wo nicht.

Ich verbinde technologische Kompetenz mit einem tiefen Verständnis für Unternehmensdynamiken. Statt über Features zu sprechen, spreche ich über Wirkung. Statt über Funktionen, über Führung. Für mich ist Microsoft 365 kein IT-Projekt, sondern eine strategische Managementplattform, auf der sich Effizienz, Transparenz und Zusammenarbeit neu definieren lassen.

In meiner Arbeit hinterfrage ich Informationsflüsse, Entscheidungswege und Verantwortlichkeiten. Ich analysiere, wo digitale Reibungsverluste entstehen und wie sich daraus klare Strukturen entwickeln lassen. Mein Anspruch ist es, Unternehmen dabei zu unterstützen, Technologie bewusst und zielgerichtet einzusetzen – nicht reaktiv, sondern strategisch.

Digitalisierung beginnt für mich im Denken. Technologie ist das Werkzeug. Struktur ist die Lösung.

Stephane Beilles

Je porte la conviction que l’être humain est naturellement enclin au travail bien fait, à la coopération et à la croissance — à condition d’évoluer dans un environnement qui nourrit son propre écosystème autant que celui qui l’entoure, qu’il soit social ou environnemental.
Je défends l’idée que l’humain ne doit jamais être une variable d’ajustement dans nos organisations, mais un véritable moteur de développement. Chaque collaborateur mérite d’être considéré comme un être en devenir, et non comme un simple rouage productif.

Docteur en cristallographie, j’ai construit mon parcours au sein de grands groupes pharmaceutiques, où j’ai contribué au développement scientifique et organisationnel en tant que manager d’équipe puis Transformation Leader.
J’ai accompagné de nombreuses équipes dans leur transition vers des pratiques managériales plus inclusives, délégatives et vertueuses.

Chez Sanofi, j’ai animé pendant plusieurs années le Management Lab, un espace d’exploration et d’apprentissage dédié aux pratiques managériales innovantes, notamment au travers d’ateliers immersifs. J’y ai également fondé la ludothèque interne, aujourd’hui riche de plus de 400 jeux d’édition.

Pour approfondir ma compréhension de l’humain et des dynamiques collectives, j’ai suivi une formation exigeante de 18 mois (JBS Lyon – Coach&Team) en coaching individuel, d’équipe et d’organisation, intégrant la sociologie, la psychologie humaniste et l’analyse transactionnelle. Je suis par ailleurs accrédité aux outils psychométriques MBTI et Process Com.

Co‑créateur du jeu professionnel Les Aventuriers de la Draille®, Facilitateur Chaos Fertile® et Ambassadeur Burni Bornes®, je conçois également des jeux d’édition sur mon temps personnel.

Enfin, je pratique l’Aïkido depuis l’âge de 6 ans et la méditation de pleine conscience depuis dix ans, deux disciplines qui nourrissent profondément ma vision du leadership, du jeu et de la relation à soi et à l’autre.
