Dorka Nagy-Józsa rewires leaders for a living: neuroscience-backed, and increasingly with an orchestra of AI agents at her side. She is CEO of Y2Y Ltd., a Budapest leadership-development company behind more than 5,000 organizational-development days in 14 languages, and an ICF PCC executive coach.
Since 2016 she has spoken on 300+ stages on four continents: SHRM INCLUSION 2024 in Denver, where she was the only speaker from Europe on the programme; the IFPSM World Summit in Xiamen, to 1,500+ procurement and supply-chain leaders, and in Mombasa, Kenya; AI Summit Europe in Riga, where 98.8% of attendees rated her closing keynote excellent or very good; and the main HR, AI and business stages of Central Europe.
She has written weekly about leadership, organizations and the messy reality of work since 2016. More than 600 articles later, some of them grew up to become Horizontal Thinking: Leadership after the end of the specialist era (2027), which she wrote together with Cody, her favorite and most senior AI agent. Marshall Goldsmith calls horizontal thinking "the defining leadership discipline of our time".
She travels a hundred days a year, at least eighty of them with her kids and without her laptop.

Horizontal Thinking (2027)
"Depth used to be the career strategy; now it's a subscription. Dorka Nagy-Józsa writes from inside this disruption with rare honesty and hard-won optimism, helping leaders learn horizontal thinking as the defining leadership discipline of our time."
"Organizations were designed around the scarcity of expertise and the need to coordinate specialized work. AI is challenging both assumptions. Horizontal Thinking explores the implications for how we structure organizations and develop leaders - a valuable contribution to the conversation."
