https://youtu.be/-IhUcC72HCw I had the opportunity to preview a new book by Dr. Damian Goldvarg, “Lead with a Coaching Mindset: How the Best Leaders Unlock Potential”, which was released on September 2nd, 2025. Dr. Goldvarg, Ph.D., is not only an author but also an internationally accredited and well-known expert in leadership, with thirty years of experience in the fields of leadership coaching, training, and research. He lectures and studies around the world on the topic.
