Portrait of Dovydas Liaudanskas

About

I’m Dovydas Liaudanskas, a speaker and a career and business coach. I run Ripe Leads, train teams to work with AI and host the CHANGES podcast. I live in Vilnius.

My working life started far from stages: in a lab, testing coating systems for car makers. That taught me to understand how something works before I talk about it.

Since then I have run large projects in Germany, coached thousands of adults through career changes, taught certified first aid courses, co-founded a fintech and built companies in Lithuania. I speak four languages, and most of my best work happened because I could talk to both sides in their own.
