Gerardo shares the extraordinary story of negotiating the sale of a high-profile Italian soccer club and how the experience of the deal almost falling through at the 11th hour unexpectedly led to the realisation that the path he was on was not fully aligned with his humanity or his true calling.

He embodies a playful, positive and contagious energy and is a leader who is committed to ‘playing big’.
