Bio
Anna Panicheva
I was lucky to attend several training by Andy on cross cultural interactions and conducting effective meetings in cross culture context (year 2017). Andy is passionate and well prepared as a teacher, very knowledgeable and experienced. I really liked warm atmosphere of the training and close attention to each participant.
GERTI DAJCI, DBA
I have worked with Andy for approximately the last 3 years in Tirana Business University. In the time that I have worked with him I have been thoroughly impressed by his leadership and results oriented strategies. He really helped me to step into my leadership capabilities and recognize qualities within myself that I never realized I had. This allowed me to become a much more confident and effective leader. Not only did I grow as a leader while working with Andy, I grew as a man, a friend, and a professor. Andy has the ability to manage both projects and people, which is a rare quality. Andy possesses the innate ability to recognize strengths of our team members at University and match them with tasks that must be completed. His positive energy stimulated our team to perform at a higher level. I highly recommend Andy to any company or business that needs assistance with marketing campaigns, teaching, and business development
