Pedro Borges

I have a degree in Business Communication but life took me to an artistic path, as a theater actor and later a professional Improviser. I started applying Improvisation skills to the corporate world to help people be more efficient when dealing with change. Our products have high rate of success and have true impact on teams and organizations. I also coach high level executives in Public Speaking, Storytelling and other areas of communication. Now I am also a certified AQ coach, because I believe adaptability is a crucial skill for our lives, along with Improvisation.

I take a unique approach to coaching by combining AQai’s science-backed adaptability insights with proven business strategy frameworks, crafting tailored programs that empower individuals and organizations to lead with clarity, innovate with purpose, and stay grounded in the face of rapid change.

Change doesn’t have to be overwhelming. With the right strategy and support, it can become your biggest opportunity for growth.
