He is a man who demands from himself a lot, he is ambitious, and very modest. As the leader of the international company, he often quotes Nelson Mandela : \u201cEverything seems impossible, until it is done\u201d. This thought inspires him to look for solutions in difficult situations, which seem to be unsolvable. The founder of Mokate \u2013 Teresa Mokrysz, built very high standards of company management, and Adam Mokrysz, PhD is still raising them. New challenges are a motivation and inspiration for him to act and reach new goals. In a business activity it is development of the company and international expansion. His managerial identity has been formed in the culture of pursuing goals. The management model which he follows, is characterised by consistency and patience. Being a strategist, he understands very well that for a family company it is not most important to gain a short-term advantage in narrow scopes, but a gradual, consistent and methodologic building of a multi-generation business. Mokate is one of few effective successions of family businesses in Poland. Family values are a guarantee of stability and continuity of management model.

The sports way of thinking works very well in company management. Based on this assumption, he plans always in the perspective of a few strategic moves ahead. Like in chess, checking inquisitively all possibilities and estimating the risks. It doesn\u2019t mean he avoids it. The Mokate Group wouldn\u2019t have reached its current position, if they hadn\u2019t made brave moves: international acquisition and winning the next international markets. \u00a0Adam Mokrysz has built the strong export of Mokate products from basics, and his consistency and determination led to international development of the Group. Adam Mokrysz executes the long-term strategy and doesn\u2019t lose the clearly set goal from his eyesight.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Adam Mokrysz supports education and culture organisations.
