Marta Głowacka

An analyst who hates fluff

Marta joined Business Pillars Consulting in May 2019. Since then, she has conducted 147 operational audits in SME companies. Her work begins where the owner feels the company is stalled, even though everyone is running like crazy. Marta enters the floor or office with a stopwatch in hand and looks for what we call waste. She doesn't judge people, only how the work flows.

Concrete numbers instead of guesswork

In Marta's work, only hard facts count. In March 2024, she helped a manufacturing company from Niepołomice shorten the product transition time through the line by 43 minutes. It wasn't magic, just moving two stations and changing the component feeding method. Marta believes every bottleneck can be broken if you dedicate 23 hours to reliable process observation rather than guessing at a desk.

• Conducted 84 VSM process mapping workshops.
• Recovered time for her clients in 2023 totaling 2,418 hours.
• Averages finding 6 critical information flow errors in the first day of an audit.

Her approach is simple: the process should earn, not generate unnecessary clicks in Excel. Marta often says the best procedure is one that fits on a single A4 sheet and that everyone understands in 47 seconds. If something requires a thick binder of instructions, it needs improvement.

Works starting tomorrow

Marta doesn't leave clients with a pile of reports no one reads. Her recommendations are ready for immediate implementation. If she notices a warehouse worker taking 1,140 extra steps every day, she simply changes the shelf layout. Honestly, she can be tiring with her drive for order, but the numbers at the end of the quarter always prove her right. After work, Marta regenerates with black coffee, planning her next optimization – this time for her own garden.

P.S. Marta always carries a notebook where she records the duration of every activity, so don't be surprised if she checks her watch exactly 4 times during the first meeting.
