About Polina Shilenina

Digital Project Manager at Publicis Worldwide

My passion is developing and delivering products and solutions that nudge people to do better.

I have been leading digital projects in teams ranging from a startup to a global creative agency for 8+ years. I am fascinated by the way humans behave and make decisions and am keen to stretch my creative muscle every now and again.

I am also a bit of personal efficiency and productivity nerd, so if you want to chat about ways of getting more done whilst retaining your sanity and long-term focus I would love to help!

In my (imaginary) spare time co-host a podcast called Assistercast where we celebrate asking for help, mentoring up-and-coming talent and looking beyond labels and stereotypes.

“I had a great time talking with Polina. She gave me a holistic view of what Project Manager is and guided me through what type of Project Manager would be a good fit. She motivated me to achieve my future goal and definitely gave an amazing positive energy:) Thank you so much Polina!”

“I had a really great chat with Polina. It has been challenging adjusting to a new role at agency. At times it can feel overwhelming, everything is always on fire, everything is always urgent. Polina had some great advice to share about how to pause, take time to think and to prioritize. She also shared some different frameworks and tools that she uses to stay on top of things.”

“I was glad to have had this mentorship experience with Polina. The information she gave me about being a Project Manager really helped. From blogs that will help in your project management journey to areas that you are expected to know in an interview, Polina said it all. Above all, she was easy to talk to and clearly communicated to me with a lovely smile.”
