A Slovenian Success Story
When Matic Jurkošek first read "How to Win Friends and Influence People" a decade ago, inspired by Warren Buffett's praise for the book, he couldn't have imagined he would one day become part of the Dale Carnegie legacy. Now, as Slovenia's newest Dale Carnegie franchise owner, he's preparing to bring the globally renowned training company's programs to his home country.
With over 20 years of experience in sales and team management across various industries, Jurkošek brings a wealth of practical knowledge to his new venture. "Everyone in business knows the Dale Carnegie book," he notes. "What they don't realize is there's a well-organized franchising system behind it."
