He advises family businesses on succession, founder transition, governance, and family charter development across markets. Sonny co-founded and until recently co-led the Firm’s global Family Business Advisory Practice. Sonny is a Fellow of the Institute of Coaching, McLean an affiliate of the Harvard Medical School and actively coaches senior professionals. In addition, he remains very active in Egon Zehnder’s Health, Consumer, Board and Leadership Advisory practices.

I strive to find white spaces and build Egon Zehnder’s presence around the world by being authentic and delivering on the trust and confidence clients place in our firm.

He frequently speaks and writes on topics related to family businesses with work published in journals internationally, including the Harvard Business Review.
