Tomasz Popławski

After many, many years of working with clients (yes, he is not that young), one thing has never changed: he genuinely likes people. For Tomasz, a client relationship has never been just about numbers, reports, or campaign results. He believes the best work happens when you understand how a client thinks, what keeps them awake at night, and what they are really trying to accomplish. That philosophy has become a big part of how Ingressus operates.

His role is often to translate the client’s needs into a direction the entire team can understand and work toward. Sometimes that means strategy, sometimes marketing, sales, PR, an event, or simply finding a solution when there doesn’t seem to be an obvious one.

Having spent more than two decades working with the Polish-American market, Tomasz knows the Polish community in the U.S. like his own backyard. That experience allows Ingressus to help American companies communicate effectively with ethnic communities, while also helping Polish and European businesses better understand how to operate and promote themselves in the U.S. market.

He has spent his career working across sales, media, marketing, PR, events, and business development, which makes him a bit of a professional generalist: someone who can usually see the bigger picture and connect seemingly unrelated pieces.

His biggest strength can occasionally also be his biggest challenge: there are usually a few hundred ideas running through his head at the same time. Fortunately, that is exactly why Ingressus has a team, to turn those ideas into plans, campaigns, deadlines, and something everyone else can actually follow.

Sitting still is not really part of his personality. His version of rest is usually hiking in the mountains, two hours of volleyball, a 20-kilometer bike ride, skiing, or finding another reason to be outdoors.
