František Štibraný
František bol členom KONE Bratislava tímu od roku 2015 a počas posledných 6 rokov sme boli svedkami jeho nespočetných úspechov. Bol trénerom nielen pre svoj tím ale aj pre celú firmu, dobrým kolegom, a čo je najdôležitejšie, tak kamáratom pre tých, ktorí sa nachádzali v jeho okolí. Nejeden človek si počas spolupráce s Františkom všimol, že vždy sa snažil robiť svoju prácu čo najlepšie a hlavne najpraktickejšie. Vždy vymýšľal nové pomôcky a všetkých nás vždy udivoval a nevedeli sme, kde sa v ňom tento automatický pohon vzal. Pomoc ostatným bola na prvom mieste a každý si z komunikácie s ním odniesol niečo nové. Jednoducho mu na veciach záležalo a videli sme, že to robí z vlastného rozhodnutia a je mu to prirodzené. Bol ocenený KONE BRAVO cenou, vyrástol do pozície špecialistu a stal sa kontaktnou osobou pre Nemecko pre nespočetne veľa procesov, či projektov. Budeme si ho pomätať nielen ako skvelého kolegu, ale hlavne ako úprimného človeka, s ktorým sa dalo porozprávať na akúkoľvek tému. V neposlednom rade nám bol vzorom a inšpiráciou a všetko, čo sa kedy naučil (a odovzdal na tréningoch), čo sa týka excelu, sa naučil sám z vlastnej vôle. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Frantisek was a member of Bratislava KONE Team from 2015 and in his 6 years he had the most valued achievements. He was a trainer not only to his team but to whole company, a good collegue and most importantly a good friend to his closest. He was always striving for better and this is the feature that most people will probably remember about him. Always trying to find a more practical way of doing literally anything amazed us and we couldn´t understand where this drive comes from. He did everything in his power to help others and support them in every need they had. He simply cared. Everyone who had the slightest "touch" with him or his work knew, that this was his legacy and it came from him naturally. He received a KONE Bravo award, grew to a specialist role and became a contact person for multiple processes in Germany which all stand as a proof of all his good work. But we will not only remember him as a top colleague, but mostly as an honest person who you could talk to on a personal level. Last but not least - he learned all what he knew (and trained) concerning excel by himself which is a precious inspiration we have from him.
