Alex has a lot of passion for personal development and growth, and throughout his career has always aimed to deliver results in big and complex businesses through helping their people grow and develop.

As a Vice President in Walgreens Boots Alliance, and while running one of the most profitable divisions of the business, he led the creation and training of marketing capability, and personally trained and deployed it across multiple countries. As a Chief Commercial officer at Utility Warehouse, he revolutionised a new people-and-growth centric approach for the more than 5000 distributors and partners of the business.
Having lived in 6 countries the last 20 years, Alex is originally from Greece, married to a Russian, with 2 children born in Switzerland and currently living in the UK. Big passions in life, apart from family, include travelling, people, languages, running and skiing, as well as spending as much time as possible on a boat in Greece.
