One of the challenges that now lies ahead for Daniel Puchalski is “to speed things up,” he claims. “We have a great agency with a fantastic team, but every company needs a boost in the form of new people with energy and a different view of the business,” declares the new managing partner of Knight Frank
Tomasz Cudowski, ‘Eurobuild CEE’: Is it easy to move from one high position in a consultancy to another?
Daniel Puchalski, Knight Frank: It depends how you look at it. On the one hand, it’s easy because you stay in the same sector, with the same contacts in a familiar business. On the other, it’s difficult because you face challenges of a much broader scope than before. And JLL is a nice company with fantastic people, where I devoted a part of my life.
Not many people know that you devoted another part of your life to telecoms.
That’s right. Back in 1995 I was responsible for building and managing teams in the telecoms sector in northern Poland, including for Era GSM, which is now T-Mobile. From there I moved to Netia in Warsaw. The company had maybe only a few clients at that time but when I left its revenue was already in the hundreds of millions of złoty, and I added a little to this by building and managing sales in the business client department.
