Please read what others have to say about Cross-cultural Strategies:
- Raimundo de Azevedo (former coach/manager of Brazilian Olympic Basketball team, Professor of Sports, soccer coach at C.R. Flamengo, C.R. Vasco (Rio de Janeiro)
"I have known Gábor since 1992, when as official interpreter of the Brazilian Olympic Basketball Team at the Pre-Olympic Tournament in Portland, performed brilliantly by virtue of his outstanding professional qualifications and also his other character traits, such as:
a) his sense of responsibility,
b) his constant availability to help everyone around him, whenever this was possible,
c) his integrity and humanistic principles.
So, since May of 1992, I have in Gábor a friend of whom I am proud in recommending for any management responsibilities of weight, in which he can exercise his innate leadership skills on behalf of any project, his undeniable multi-linguistic capabilities and his in-depth knowledge of a variety of sports disciplines - a capable administrator."
- Emerson Fittipaldi (Two-time Indy 500 champion, Formula 1 champion, Champ Car/CART champion)
- Alex Dias Ribeiro (Former Formula 1 driver, F3 champion and Executive Director of Atletas de Cristo)
"I have known Gábor for more than 10 years and he has earned our absolute trust in him. We have worked together on a variety of projects and I can attest that he is a consumate, reliable professional who carries out his duties with passion and integrity. As a longtime amateur football (soccer) player he knows his sport intimately. Gábor knows how to work with elite athletes and has done so with success in basketball, auto racing, football (soccer) and other disciplines. Gifted with an extraordinary knowledge as a linguist, he speaks numerous languages and is an expert in relating to people of many different international cultures."
- Mario Haberfeld (ChampCar/CART driver, Formula 3000 champion)
"…Brazilian, a racing enthusiast and also a brother in faith. A person dedicated in everything he does, he is considerate, a true companion and always ready to extend a helping hand to those who need it. This, in addition to the countless foreign languages he speaks. The Portland race is always one that the drivers are looking forward to, because it is one of the better circuits in the series, but I am pretty sure no one looks forward to it more than my wife Aninha and I, because to go to Portland these days means more than just going to another race; it means getting to see a great friend."
- Luiz Marcelo Machado (Former professional soccer player, Fluminense FC, Head Coach of PDL/USL's Yakima Reds)
- Ron Carlson (Sports Director, KATU TV, ABC TV affiliate in Portland, USA)
"I have had the pleasure of being associated with Gábor both in the business world and on the soccer field. He has handled both realms with the highest level of integrity. I count it an honor to know him."
- Wayne Newitts (Sr. Marketing Manager, Americas Region, Tektronix, Inc.)
"Moving into a business development position that included responsibility for all Latin America presented considerable challenges. Having Mr. Becht as a member of the team was key to my success. He provided far more than localization and translation abilities. His understanding of the business climate and cultural nuances throughout the region help me open doors to key individuals and uncover many more opportunities than I would ever have been able to without him."
- Bernd Stark (Director/Manager and Station Manager in many countries for Lufthansa, German Airlines)
- Rev. István Gémes (retired Ev. Lutheran pastor and theologian, Stuttgart, Germany)
- Hunter Floyd (chaplain of ChampCar Ministries and former race car driver)
- Lácio Pontes (Owner and President of The Communications Group)
