Bringing the Uplifting Service Methodology to Romania

The Uplifting Service methodology first made its mark in Romania in 2012, during an impactful event where Ron Kaufman addressed a large audience of top managers. This milestone was made possible through the dedication and vision of Elena Călin.

Driven by her passion for elevating service standards in Romania, Elena worked tirelessly to convince Ron Kaufman’s team to bring their transformative methodology to the country.

In 2016, Elena Călin became a Certified Master Trainer, enabling her to deliver the Uplifting Service Methodology in Romania. Since then, she has been a leading advocate for improving service excellence, helping organizations create meaningful customer experiences and achieve sustainable success.
