I’m Daniela Draugelis, the founder of Cultural Pathways. I work with people and organizations navigating the complexities of global transitions and cultural diversity.
My own journey has been deeply global. I’ve lived and worked across continents, and I know firsthand what it feels like to adapt, belong, and sometimes struggle in unfamiliar environments. Those experiences shaped my belief that cultural intelligence (CQ) isn’t just a professional skill . It’s a life skill that changes the way we lead, connect, and thrive.
Before founding Cultural Pathways, I spent years in international marketing and leadership roles with global corporations, non-profits, and startups. Over time, I shifted toward intercultural training and coaching, earning certifications from the Cultural Intelligence Center and iPec Coaching.
I see myself as a partner, not a prescriber. My approach is collaborative, empathetic, and practical. I bring structured methods like CQ assessments and cultural audit frameworks, but I always adapt them to the unique needs of each client. My role is to guide, co-create, and empower you to find solutions that fit your context.
Through Cultural Pathways, I want to help people and organizations thrive globally by bridging cultural divides, and supporting smoother global transitions.
If you’re preparing for a global move or leading across cultures, I’d love to explore how we can work together.
