East-West Leadership published Dragon Suit in 2023, featuring executive coaching, workshops, and keynotes on leadership and business opportunities in China for international executives.

Sooner or later, every successful leader hits the same speed-bump: the skills that made them successful locally stop working globally. It might be a new expat assignment, multicultural team or promotion into a role with global reach. Whatever the trigger, the gap between where they are and where they need to be is rarely about technical competence — it's about cultural agility. East-West Leadership has been closing that gap since 2005, when founder Gábor Holch began coaching international executives in Shanghai. We work with multinationals, international organisations, and individual executives navigating leadership across Eastern and Western business cultures — in the field, at headquarters, and everywhere in between. Our programmes combine behavioural assessment with practical action plans, drawing on decades of real executive experience and current leadership science. The result: leaders who don't just adapt to cultural complexity — they lead through it. We specialise in: - Intercultural leadership coaching and workshops — for expat assignments, diverse in-location teams, and global virtual teams - Dragon Suit: China-specific executive coaching and workshops for leaders engaging with Chinese business environments Intercultural leadership advisory for HR, L&D, and Global Mobility functions - Keynotes on East-West Leadership and the Dragon Suit framework If your organisation is developing leaders for global roles — wherever those roles are based — contact us or reach out directly to Gábor Holch.
