AnsweRED Podcast by CD PROJEKT RED

How do you build a culture and grow talent across continents? How do you carve out genuine space for diverse perspectives? And how do you keep teams deeply connected when they’re thousands of kilometers apart? In the 31st episode of AnsweRED Podcast, we dive into these questions to explore what it really takes to lead international teams and build a culture that grows with them. Joining our hosts — Senior Communication Manager Paweł Burza and Art Director for Project Hadar Paweł Mielniczuk — are Chief People Officer and Board Member Karolina Radziszewska and VP, Head of People Strategy and Operations, Marta Fortuna. Tune in as they discuss the role of People & Culture in the game dev industry, how they support leadership growth, the value of diverse perspectives, women building careers in game development, and fostering connections between our Warsaw and Boston teams.
