On this episode Leo interviews Gabor Holch, intercultural leadership coach, consultant, speaker and author specialised in East-West leadership.

Since then, he has advised, coached and trained 100+ clients in 25+ countries, spoken at conferences and corporate events and lectured at business programmes.

He is certified in several assessment and coaching methodologies. He has written three books and about a hundred academic and business articles.
