Mats interviews Mike Kubena, former member of PwC Global Strategy Council and CEO of PwC Central and Eastern Europe. A truly inspiring and thoughtful man on a reflective journey. Mike’s journey started from San Antonio, Texas, where he grow up, and started his career and moves to where he left, as a 26 year old, to embark on a very successful career that took him to Russia and Eastern Europe.  We discuss:  Cultural differences in the work place, self awareness as a leader, how to retain key talents, the role of HR, the reality of performance appraisals and targets, how to lead thousands of people at one time, whether or not managers should make themselves redundant and much more.
