Mentors 2025
Radmila Đokić, Head of MS&T Scale-up and Technology Support
I believe that mentorship is not just about transferring knowledge, but also about inspiration, support, and mutual growth. With many years of experience in pharmaceutical technology, quality, and product transfer, I passionately support the development of women and leaders who are ready to take on challenges and reach their full potential.
All my experiences have helped me understand the importance of the mentor role in professional development. I look forward to the opportunity to support future female leaders through this program, to share my experiences, and to build a stronger community of successful women together.
In this community, I see the mentorship as a two-way street where we learn from each other and empower each other by sharing challenges and successes.
If you are ready for this development journey, join us! Together, we can achieve a lot, supporting and inspiring each other every step of the way.
Lejla Osmanović , Key Accout Manager
By profession, I am a dentist, by choice, an enthusiast and nature lover, and by title, a mother and wife. By principle, I am loyal, responsible, and dedicated to learning and improvement.
My development journey in this business has been tied to Hemofarm from the very beginning and its early days in Sarajevo. Through dynamic work experience, starting from the position of Medical Representative and leading a smaller Sales team, I was ready to take on the responsibility of managing key clients in strategic therapeutic areas for the entire Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
I believe that every improvement process is much easier with a responsible and dedicated mentor. I see the mentoring process as a two-way street filled with constructive advice and inspiration, where the mentor and mentee grow and empower each other together. The role of a mentor in his program is of great value to me and will strive to be of great help to my mentee.
It is extremely important that everyone in their work environment, especially if it is predominantly female, contributes to strengthening female solidarity, to empowering women’s roles in leadership, and to supporting them in career development.
I very much look forward to my future mentee, I will be open to listening to all challenges and provide maximum support.
Tanja Vidić, Head of PU
As someone who has spent over 20 years in this business, I am extremely pleased to have the opportunity to share my experience with others through this program. Throughout my career, I have faced many challenges, but I have also had the opportunity to learn from more experienced colleagues and grow through their advice and support. Now, I want to provide that same kind of support to young professionals.
I will strive to help, inspire, and encourage young colleagues to move forward, but also to know how to set boundaries in their work. I believe it’s important not only to be hardworking and dedicated but also to know how to balance our responsibilities and keep health and well-being as a priority.
The tools we know and the skills we possess are significant factors on the path to our goals. What motivates me is the fact that through this program we can exchange knowledge and embrace much from one another.
Each of us has unique perspectives and experiences that can be invaluable to others.
Maja Trivunović, Site Supply Chain Head
In today’s dynamic business environment, where time is the most valuable currency, Hemofarm has recognized the value of investing in people. It is my pleasure to be part of a program focused on learning, sharing knowledge and experience, as a catalyst for continued progress and growth.
I have many years of experience in Supply Chain, and I hope that my knowledge and skills will be beneficial to the candidates of this program. Having gone through many challenges and opportunities myself, I will strive to help my mentee overcome obstacles in their career path more easily and quickly. I believe that providing support and solving problems together is the key to professional and personal development.
It will be my pleasure to meet new people, exchange ideas, and discuss many interesting topics together. The mentoring program is not just about guidance, but also about mutual learning and growth.
I look forward to meeting future participants and taking successful steps together towards achieving goals. Join us, we are expecting you!
Tatjana Lakić, Head of Global Cyber Governance, Risk Compliance, and Awareness
My name is Tatjana Lakić. I hold a degree in Philology with an academic foundation in language studies and communication. My great interest in technology on one hand, and communication skills acquired through studies and career on the other, have allowed me to apply my expertise in the dynamic field of cybersecurity.
My greatest passion in my work is communicating and making cybersecurity topics accessible to people without technical backgrounds through training sessions that I organize within the STADA company. Therefore, communication and understanding cultural and professional differences within the complex STADA system are very important for my job.
I would say that as a leader, I am very focused on people and understanding their needs at work. I believe a strong team is made up of motivated individuals willing to work on their professional development.
Mentoring programs have been a very important part of my professional growth and maturation. I see the role of a mentor as a two-way process from which both parties learn and develop. Enthusiasm, creativity, and new energy that mentees bring inspire me to continue introducing innovations into my work, and I am very excited to contribute to the professional development of mentees within this program through an open relationship and communication.
Marija Vasić, Senior Culture & People Business Partner
I hold a degree in sociology, and my interest in the Human resources sector began during my studies. Immediately after graduating, I started an internship at an FMCG company and quickly realized that I was truly passionate about HR. Over my 13-year long career in various industries, from large FMCG corporations to smaller IT companies, I have developed flexibility, and an understanding of the different challenges one can face as an HR professional.
It is a great honor to participate in the mentoring program and to have the opportunity to share my experience. As a businesswoman, wife, and mother, I am aware of the challenges of balancing professional and private life that every woman faces. I believe that with the right support, everything is possible, and I look forward to the opportunity to guide someone on their journey and help them achieve their full potential. Additionally, I always look forward to meeting new people and hear new perspectives that help me continuously learn and view the world with different eyes.
Privately, I am a great lover of books and music. I believe it is never too late to learn something new, so I recently began learning to play the drums, which brings me immense joy.
Irina Skityaeva, VP Culture & People Eastern Europe
I am an HR professional with a Ph.D. in developmental psychology and a certified coach in in organizational and leadership fields. I strongly believe in lifelong learning and development, open-mindedness, and human creativity. I am the mother of two talented daughters, and I have a passion for paper books and pilates.
As a leader and HR professional, I have experience in consulting, media, and the pharmaceutical industry. Over the years, I have faced personal dilemmas; I’ve won some battles, and now, as I manage HR teams for Eastern Europe, I would like to share my experiences and contribute to the further development of women leaders. The value and knowledge I can share revolve around building relationships with diverse individuals while maintaining authenticity, and I believe this will be valuable for my future mentee.
Mentoring is always a great opportunity for personal development for both parties. It goes beyond regular obligations, guides us towards career growth, and motivates us to surpass ourselves. Additionally, a great benefit of this program is that, in mentoring conversations, a very specific topic is exchanged with a person who is there just for you, to listen and to share their perspective.
Mentorship, like coaching, can be an opportunity for mental reflection. In a world filled with uncertainty and agility, it’s beneficial to have someone who can objectively assess your professional development. That’s why I am happy that we have such programs, and I invite ladies to apply so they can grow and learn together with us.”
