Learn the 3 C’s: Coaching, Communication, Cross-Cultural Strategy

Professor Zweifel teaches leadership and cross-cultural management at Columbia University in New York, St. Gallen Business School, and in other universities in the United States, Europe and Australia. In his speeches in corporations, UN bodies, government agencies like the US State Department and the US Military Academy at West Point, he acts as an "ambassador of worlds and wisdoms," integrating America and Europe, West and East, tradition and future, business and making a difference, theory and practice. His speaking and teaching empower leaders in all walks of life to go beyond themselves and be the global leaders needed by the 21st century.

"I have personally seen Dr. Zweifel in action... He is a man who deserves a title that is all too often bestowed without merit, but in this case is truly deserved: miracle worker."
David Searby, program officer, U.S. State Department
