Real Voices from Our Network

These sessions are truly remarkable. Vol’s ability to connect people from diverse industries and backgrounds is unmatched—it’s inspiring to see how meaningful relationships are built here. I was especially impressed by the last year event in New York, where around 50 OPMers came together in one of the city’s top venues, with Prof. John Davis. Not to mention the private invitation-only event with Gen. Petraeus, which was both exclusive and insightful. There’s always something extraordinary to learn and a valuable network to grow.

It’s fascinating how I’ve been able to proactively participate in almost every session, and each one leaves me positively energized for the rest of my Saturday. The caliber of discussions and guest speakers is truly inspiring, and I always walk away with valuable insights and, more importantly, a few new business connections every time I join. These sessions have become an essential part of my routine.

I’ve been part of many executive forums, but Exchange Forum is in a league of its own. Volodymyr has built something truly special—a small, intimate forum where top thinkers from across industries come together for real, thought-provoking conversations. Every week, he brings in world-class experts, and I’m constantly amazed by the caliber of speakers he attracts. It’s not just a lecture—it’s a space where we can ask real questions, exchange insights, and connect in a way I haven’t found anywhere else.

I try not to miss a single session—I’ve attended most of our meet-ups, and this is more than just a forum; it’s a true community. Volodymyr is a man of integrity, a devoted father, and an exceptional connector of people. Through this network, I’ve built genuine friendships and meaningful connections.

Vol is one of the best representatives of Ukraine and an alumnus of the Harvard Business School Owner/President Management (OPM) Program, who upholds and expands our shared values, strengthening the global leadership community.
