2. Two Video Interviews:

• For English speakers: I discussed the importance of emotional leadership skills for new managers on the “GLOBAL TV Talkshow with Ed Cohen” podcast. Watch the video here (~ 1 hour): https://youtu.be/1MA5mueLiw0?si=7SCQm8HyIx5Io2ka
• For German speakers: I had the pleasure of talking with Barbara Budrich, CEO of Verlag Barbara Budrich, about the topic of “Plötzlich in Führung”. Watch the video here (~ 1 hour): https://youtu.be/w-VvQTO0YtQ?si=tS7FbSxoy8bmrvxJ

I hope you find these new resources insightful and valuable for your leadership journey! 

If you know any aspiring leaders who might benefit from this information, please feel free to share these resources with them. 

Thank you,

Reiner Lomb
