Kristiana
Briede

Kristiāna leads with empathy, structure, and long-term vision. She designs and drives initiatives that shape how Balcia grows - from strategic development and group-wide learning to supporting employee wellbeing like it’s a living, growing thing (because it is).

She brings structure and insight into everything she does, with a calm, emotionally intelligent leadership style that keeps drama out and alignment in. Her role is all about making sure we grow the right way - sustainably, collaboratively, and with people at the heart of it all.

Fun fact!
Outside of her organized work world, Kristiāna runs on intuition. Spontaneous and sharp, she has a gift for reading the room and sensing what people need before they say a word. That mix of structure and gut instinct? Her quiet superpower.

If Kristiāna were a Balcia product she’d be…
Travel Insurance - steady, insightful, and always prepared for whatever journey lies ahead.
