FLORIN LUNGU
Florin is a Leadership Coach, Trainer, and Organizational Expert with The John Maxwell Team on a mission: to help entrepreneurs and corporate professionals just like you become their best version so they make the impact they are meant to make in the world.
With 12+ years of international experience in leading and training people in international corporations, 6+ years in the personal and corporate development industry, and 5+ years of entrepreneurship, Florin has learned a bit (often the hard way) about embracing change, leading people, and business mindset. He is also a Certified Behavioral Analyst and has worked with entrepreneurs, corporate professionals, and growth-oriented organizations locally and internationally in establishing firm growth foundations.
Florin’s Story
Growing up as the oldest son of a working-class family in a tiny town in Romania, it seemed like the only logical career option for him was to be an automotive engineer.
In a last-ditch effort to pave a future for him, his father kept an eye on him to finish high school and suggested what seemed the logical next step: the automotive engineering college.
Five years later, graduating from the Faculty of Mechanics in Craiova, Florin started his first full-time job with Renault.
His career seemed predestined to working in and with cars and technical stuff until March 2011 when one of his mentors, (the Department Head), Eric Liautard, seeing in him something that neither his dad nor himself could see, offered Florin his first team manager role. Eric saw in him his ability to influence and relate to others.
Is this as good as it gets?
Have you ever found yourself wondering, “Is this as good as it gets?”
That was in 2013 for Florin. While life seemed like it was going in the right direction, He couldn’t help but ask, “Is this as good as it gets?” Unfortunately, he knew something wasn’t right.
Coaching Was The Pivot He Needed.
Fortunately, that’s when he discovered The John Maxwell Team and been introduced to coaching.
If you were to ask, “So Florin – is this as good as it gets?” he would answer from a different posture of heart today. Together with his wife, Florina he celebrated 15 years of marriage this year. They’re blessed with each other. He’s learned to pursue harmony in his life, so even though he dedicated his life to becoming the best coach he can be, Florin takes time to travel, explore cultures, read, go hiking, and cook.”
