Izabela Branicka’s manor-house during the time of her independent administration was a workplace for people deriving from diferent social environments and groups. Her closest associates were undoubtedly top clerks in the court hierarchy. She particularly appreciated cooperation with treasurer Wojciech Matuszewicz and personal assistant Jakub Popławski. Both Matuszewicz and Popławski were long-standing and tested employees who, irrespective of anything, were always loyally standing at their employer’s side. Another equally significant feature of Izabela Branicka as an employer was a sense of responsibility for her subordinates. In the face of personal misfortunes, old age or sickness, I. Branicka took responsibility for her subordinates and tried within her power to help them in everyday drudgery. And just this attitude caused that her associates were usually loyal people and tried to do everything they could to earn their wealthy patron’s grace in as honest as possible way.
