Andreas Forsberg

Andreas “Anttu” Forsberg works as a leadership anthropologist, observer, and behavioral analyst. He is an experienced and engaging speaker, facilitator, and executive coach. He is also the author of The Black Book of Leadership, a book about leadership written as a suspense novel.

Through observation, behavioral analysis, and feedback, Andreas is devoted to helping executive teams understand how their behavior impacts the engagement of people around them – either increasing or decreasing the likelihood of High Performance. His passion for creating an engaging and emotionally safe working environment where teams and individuals thrive has taken Andreas around the world to work with leaders and teams of different nationalities and with different cultural backgrounds, representing a wide variety of functional roles within global businesses. This has given him a richer perspective on leading High Performance in times of change and uncertainty.

With a master’s degree in adult education from Helsinki University and over 24 years of experience in leadership development, with more than 54,000 single quantitative behavioral data points and over 1,000 hours of qualitative behavioral data analysis from more than 100 unique behavioral observation sessions of leadership teams at work, Andreas speaks with confidence making the claims about leadership and high performance he presents.

When not contemplating leadership matters, Andreas enjoys spending time in the kitchen cooking for friends and family, listening to rock music (often played a little too loud), and spending time with his family.
